Re: psync question
That didn't work either. See, I didn't actually install a previous version. I've only done a make install with .61 I cleared every single file and directory that .61 installed, and I re-installed and got the same problem. I'm attaching the output of the install I just did, just in case you can see anything amiss there.

Any suggestions? I think I got it. maybe you have to make install UNINST=1 to overwrite previously installed version. If the worse gets the worst, you can try rm -f `cat /Library/Perl/darwin/auto/MacOSX/File/.packlist` to delete the old files first then install 0.61 again. Dan -- Mark Edwards San Francisco, CA
Re: psync question
Just go to a default ~/Sites directory and do a ls -la, or a ll There they are. I read the Apple docs, and I still think it would be appropriate for psync to copy them. I don't really see that its psync's place to pass judgement on what gets copied and what doesn't, but what do I know?

I was under the impression that one never needed to run it anymore, but maybe I've just never been in that situation. I read something that said it was a good idea. Of course now I can't remember where I read that. Maybe explain what you're trying to do, and what steps you've taken to try to accomplish it? I'm trying to get demime to work with majordomo. demime is a Perl script, which requires some packages which I downloaded via CPAN. All that went smoothly, except that now I'm getting these h2ph errors when I try to run demime. http://scifi.squawk.com/demime.html What I'd like to know is if there's a way to undo the h2ph damage that I've incurred on my Perl installation.
