Re: Upgrade help needed moving from 5.6.1 to 5.8.2

Just a WAG, try -Dusesocks on the Configure line. (Please restart with a freshly unpacked perl-5.8.2.) Also, checking perl -V:config_args for your current perl may give a clue.

FYI, I back reved to 5.8.0 and have had no problems. Since I need to test ivs-milter which requires at least 5.8.0, I'll worry about getting to 5.8.2 later. Thanks for all your help to everyone who posted suggestions. Mike	[reply]

I'd strongly encourage you to report your problems with perlbug. 5.8.3 will be coming out in January; it would be nice if whatever is going wrong gets fixed, especially since it seems to have been introduced in 5.8.1 or 5.8.2.	[reply]
