Hey Ken!

Thanks for the reply!

I see the error "... incompatible architecture (have (arm64), need (x86_64)) ...", but not sure how to rectify it.

When running perlbrew install perl-5.36.0 got the following error: BELOW

sw_vers does shows: sw_vers ProductName: macOS ProductVersion: 12.6 BuildVersion: 21G115

I upgraded cpan: cpan -v /Users/kevin/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.35.1/bin/cpan script version 1.678, CPAN.pm version 2.34

not sure how to fix: /Users/kevin/Downloads/... /Users/kevin/perl5/perlbrew/... I used README.OSX as a guide...

You may give one or more space-separated answers, or "none" if appropr
+iate.
If you have a handcrafted Policy.sh file or a Policy.sh file generated
+ by a
previous run of Configure, you may specify it as well as or instead of
OS-specific hints.  If hints are provided for your OS, you should use 
+them:
although Perl can probably be built without hints on many platforms, u
+sing
hints often improve performance and may enable features that Configure
+ can't
set up on its own. If there are no hints that match your OS, specify "
+none";
DO NOT give a wrong version or a wrong OS.

Which of these apply, if any? [darwin]

*** Unexpected product version 12.6.
***
*** Try running sw_vers and see what its ProductVersion says.
