cannot install perl with perlbrew due to lib version mismatch

[j1n3l0]

Hi,

I've just installed perlbrew on my Mac OS X 10.5 where I have previously installed perl 5.10.1 (in /usr/local/) along with the default perl 5.8.8 (in /usr/bin). When I try to install perl 5.12 (or 5.13, the only two I've tried) it fails with the output below. I'd rather not force install and if I do I'm not sure it would even work. Any ideas?

Thank you.

Sorry, I didn't realize the message was short. Have edited and only included the pertinent part of the error message.

Thanks, I've resolved the issue.

The problem was I had this application installed and running and it had some dependencies that caused the clash. I have switched it off, cleaned all installs, taken a day and retried. Now I have successfully installed perl-5.12.1.

Now let's try some more perl versions ;)
