Yeah, after looking about a bit I came to the same conclusion, that
it's best not to mess with it. It's up to date for a debian stable
machine, so eh.
Really, the only reason was that we've been using
Cache::SharedMemoryCache to track user logins and such, and that
module is just painfully slow. S
this:
apt-get -t testing install perl
It depends on what perl you are upgrading to.
Stay with stable if you are running a publicly exposed webserver.
A more important questions is, why are you upgrading perl?
If it works, dont' touch it.

This is going to be a really newb-ish question, but eh.
I'm looking to upgrade perl on a debian webserver, running mod_perl and apache.
Is doing this really going to be as simple as "apt-get upgrade perl",
or will this at all also affect mod_perl, etc? I've googled around and
looked on perl.apach
Has anyone out there successfully upgraded perl from version 5.004 to
5.005? It won't let me install 5.005 without its version of perl-base,
but I can't seem to replace perl-base because 5.004 depends on it, and I
can't remove perl-5.004 because too many things depend on this.
If anyone can tell
Has anyone successfully upgraded their version of perl from 5.004 to
5.005. No matter what I try, I simply cannot get it to remove
perl-5.004-base so that I can install perl-5.005. I would greatly
appreciate any help anyone may provide.
This is a bug in apt. See bug 46233.
I got over it by running `dpkg -i' on the packages over and over
until everything feel in place. There's a test-release of apt
that is supposed to fix the problem. See the bottom of the bug
report about where to find it.

I would like to install/upgrade the fvwmconf package but cannot because of
an apt-get error regarding the perl package. What should I do?
When downloading fvwmconf, several perl packages are also downloaded. During
the configuration state, the error I get is this:

As far as I have been able to find out the best thing to do is to wait until
the other packages has "caught up" with this Perl upgrade, at least a week or
so. I tried to find out how to work arond this, but it didn't seem worth
while, so I will just put upgrades on hold for a week or so hoping the
Can anyone suggest how I can upgrade perl to 5.005 without dselect
forcing me to remove something like 150 packages? It seems that
perl-5.005-base conflicts with perl but doesn't provide it.
Consequently, all the packages that depend on perl want to uninstall
themselves. Any clues?
