ls -ld /usr/lib/perl/5.8 drwxr-xr-x 27 root root 4096 2006-02-20 15:02 /usr/lib/perl/5.8/ > This should be a symlink belonging to the perl-base package, and it > should be pointing at /usr/lib/perl/5.8.7. Yours apparently is not. > I suspect this is an instance of local breakage, not a packaging bug. Shouldn't this have been fixed with dpkg --force-overwrite? At least with purging the package and reinstalling it? I made a symlink now: ls -ld /usr/lib/perl/5.8 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 2006-02-21 10:46 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 -> 5.8.7/ and that fixed the problem.
