Fink usually installs a line in your .profile that sources the Fink startup script. You could save $PATH t o $OLD_PATH before sourcing Fink's startup script, then after it runs just do $PATH=$OLD_PATH:/sw/ sbin:...etc... with the additions at the end. sherm-- Web Hosting by West Virginians, for West Virginians: http://wv-www.net Cocoa programming in Perl: http://camelbones.sourceforge.net

First something, where I am not sure about: I made % mv /usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl_out % ln /usr/local/bin/perl5.8.8 /usr/bin/perl Is this right? Right in what sense? This will have the effect of /usr/bin/perl, or just perl in most PATHs, using your install rather than the Apple install, if that's what you mean by right. However, you now have Apple code running against a Perl it wasn't tested with, and you are keeping around all of a Perl version that is no longer usable, just wasting disk space (since, to my knowledge, no programs start with #!/usr/bin/perl_out). I personally would undo your last two steps, and just write your programs to use #!/usr/local/bin/perl, and adjust your PATH so that /usr/local/bin comes before /usr/bin. That way, code written for Macs that expects #!/usr/bin/perl to be the Apple-supplied Perl will continue to work as expected. Trey
Re: LWP install
After a couple of hours I found my way thru CPAN getting one missing module at a time. It appears that the warning messages just point out things you can install afterwards though. The URI and HeadParser aka the HTML module are pretty much required. Base64 and FTP seem not to be used for LWP::simple. My understanding (possibly wrong) is that if there is a budle available (i.e. Bundle::LWP) that will install any needed prereqs too. Is this correct? I just installed Bundle::Slash and it seemed to download all the necessary modules. BTW, if anyone has Slash going on their system please email me. I have it installed and would like some advice on how to set it up. Thanks!

Re: LWP install
I had the same problems. The readme talks about other required modules and then those talk about others. It's a recursive exercise apparently done for us in the MacPerl world.

Re: LWP install
Actually Chuck sent this to me. This is one of those lists that has a hangup about changing the reply to: header so that it defaults to the list. Someday I'll learn about bundles but as of now it's up to someone else to answer. And - while were at it? Is there a document somewhere that talks about just where modules ought to be installed. I can find no evidence of /site-perl/ on my system and there are at least three /Library/ folders buried in the perl zoo. The make-install procedures seem to have a mind of their own and I have no idea where things are going.

It's a recursive exercise Only if you're determined to do it the hard way. If you use the CPAN shell, it follows dependencies for you, installing everything that's needed. Just enter 'install Bundle::LWP' and you're done. It appears that the warning messages just point out things you can install afterwards though. Umm - no. The warning messages that started this thread, specifically the one that reads (You get this message, because MakeMaker could not find /System/Library/Perl/darwin/CORE/perl.h), point out that the developer tools are not installed. If the developer tools were installed, prerequisite Perl modules are a non-issue and would have been installed automatically. sherm-- If you listen to a UNIX shell, can you hear the C?
