Re^4: duplicate perl environments

I would rather get rid of 5.10.1 completly and use 5.12.4 as system default, as this is also used by the webserver processes.

root@boiao:~# perlbrew switch
No version in use; defaulting to system

Since the dist-upgrade changed perl configuration, surely there must be some way to force the system defaults ?
Any advice to this is greatly appreciated.
Br, Jimmy

Is 5.10.1 what came with your OS? If so, I strongly recommend against messing it up.	[reply]

The thing is, I did not install the new version of perl, dist-upgrade/do-release-upgrade did that for me. If i try to remove perl 5.12.4 the package manager will wipe out several other packages and most likely kill the server in the process. Last resort solution would be to completly reinstall the system, but there are a dosen websites depending on it along with a few terabytes of data. Perlbrew didn't help, attempting to remove perl 5.12.4 will break the system, trying to fiddle with perl 5.10.1 will also likely break the system. I'll have to reconsider these facts for now. Thanks everyone for your input. Best regards and have a nice weekend! Jimmy	[reply]
