After spending several days helping some unsuspecting victim, uhhh, I mean esteemed list reader with the perl5.001 installation and setup, I discovered that there is a subtle error in the perl5 package available on opus. The actual /usr/local/bin/perl symbolic link points to /bin/perl5.001 instead of the correct /usr/local/bin/perl5.001 :-( I couldn't find or reproduce the problem on my system, but I do now have a vague memory of fixing it, but obviously it was after I made the package. Anyway, for anyone else that downloaded the package, be sure to check the link. I may repackage the fixed one, but perl5.002 is almost here (how Mark Klein does all this is amazing!) so there may be a replacement soon anyway. Jeff
