Perl

  1. Get the Perl source

  2. Follow the instructions in INSTALL.

  3. During "sh Configure" you will be asked which modules to link dynamically. Type none. Here is what it looks like on Perl 5.005_02: 

    What extensions do you wish to load dynamically?
[B DB_File Data/Dumper Fcntl IO IPC/SysV NDBM_File 
ODBM_File Opcode POSIX SDBM_File Socket attrs re] none
    I am suggesting this because it fixes a problem we have which is caused by conflicts between some of the database header files which are included in the modules which PERL would like to link in dynamically.

  4. After a make install you need to install the modules which we use. Here is a list (in order of installation):
    1. MIME-Base64-2.10
    2. URI-1.00
    3. HTML-Parser-2.22
    4. libnet-1.0606
    5. LWP-attic-1.00
    6. libwww-perl-5.41
