After some more exchanges with BuildSmart, I still don't quite know how he managed to get the output of perl -V that he got (he did fiddle with his perl after the installation), but he more or less convinced me (*) that he is right, and Apple did indeed deliver his machine with a system containing perl-5.8.7. Is there no way to get a confirmation from Apple (msachs?) In any case, 5.8.7 is the current released version of perl, so Fink will sooner or later have to think about supporting it.

The only reason fink would probably *have* to start supporting it is if this /usr/bin/perl5.8.7 is real. The only reason we would probably bother supporting it is if 5.8.8 doesn't get out anytime soon. dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Fink-devel] unsupported 10.4.4 and G5 Quad requires fink modification.
NEW 2.5 Quad G5 Tower with bumdled OSXS install media for Corporate/
Government use.
Going over my OSXS 10.4.4 Corporate/Government install media it seems
that my XCode is 2.2.1.
I can't build any source files, I'm getting errors during build.
Failed: Can't resolve dependency system-perl586
My installed Apple perl is 5.8.7

I tried to install the XCode from the OSXS 10.4 install media but it
says that it wont install on this machine complaining about an
'Unknown Boot ROM Version: 5.1.7c3, please update to 5.1.5f0' and the
machine refuses to downgrade to 10.4.0 complaining that it's not
supported.
I tried to build fink from source, adjusted scripts to include checks
for perl 5.8.7 (in more than one file) and it wont even build gettext
before it fails.
