Hi Rainer,
I'd suggest that your perl package is the most recent. Just a wild guess, though. But what I'd suggest more is that you
downloadthe source archive and compile the whole package yourself for your target platform.
This is what I always do. I never install a precompiled rpm. This way, I make sure that the resulting installation
workson my system. It's actually pretty easy to do and takes only 3-4 minutes to compile everything. It's not like
you'dhave to wait hours for the build to finish.
Cheers,
Paul
