Hello, I have perl interpreter install using sypnatic package manager,
now I want to reinstall perl from the source code with different
configuration setting. Should I remove the perl first from the
sypnatic package ? when I try to to so they are a lot of package that
depend on perl, it seems unwise. So I just resinstall from source
directly,

./Configure -doptimize='-g'
make
Making x2p stuff
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/william/p/perl-5.8.8/x2p'
You haven't done a "make depend" yet!
make[1]: *** [hash.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/william/p/perl-5.8.8/x2p'
make: *** [translators] Error 2

When I run
make depend

sh ./makedepend MAKE=make
./makedepend: Already running, exiting.
test -s perlmain.c && touch perlmain.c
cd x2p; make depend
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/william/p/perl-5.8.8/x2p'
sh ../makedepend MAKE=make
../makedepend: Already running, exiting.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/william/p/perl-5.8.8/x2p'


How to solve this ? Thanks

Do not multi-post!

Ops, sorry, I thought that was different mailing list.

I was thrilled at first, because I thought finally someone has given
the solution. ;-)

So what? By multi-posting, without letting people know that you did,
there is a risk that people spend time helping you on one place without
knowing that the problem was resolved on the other place. Please show
the Perl community some respect by not abusing its resources that way.

I have done this before and found it very helpful, because the
solution that both group given are different and helpful, they became
part and parcel to complete each other. When I got the solution, I did
nd would post the solution on the other if I got the solution on the
respective group.
Btw, I did respect the community and said sorry, I never know that
comp.lang.perl.misc is almost the same.
