perl and dpkg
Hello,
Recently, I tried to install a few perl modules I
needed, but somehow botched the job. I went to remove
my improperly complied modules and succeeded in
crippling my perl installation. Now I'm unable to
upgrade my system via apt-get, something i did every
few days, and was hoping someone would know how I
could rebuild my perl installation, preferably through
dpkg/dselect/apt. My output from apt-get is both
appended below and posted (making it a little easier
to read) at chb.orangekids.net/misc/apt-output.txt. if
you need any clarification, please ask. Thanks in
advance.
