Debian Perl packages, modules - how to cleanup extras
What's Debian's procedure for installing and maintaining perl?
At the beginning, dselect insisted that packages for perl-5.004
and perl-5.005 be installed. Is it necessary
Other lib*-perl packages were installed and recently perl 5.6.1 was
compiled, successfully, after most defaults were accepted. The result
is three sets of files.
What configuration do I change in what files to eliminate the
duplicate files?
Can I (and how do I ) "hold" some packages while I clean up?
If more debian perl packages are installed, will perl 5.6.1 find them?
Should I add paths to a variable in ~/.cpan/CPAN/MyConfig.pm?
