I had sent this question out a couple of months ago (back when we went from perl PL-18 to PL-twenty-something) and never got any responses. I assmue that my mail wasn't getting out, so here goes again. What are the required steps to perform in order to build 'perl' from scratch? My question arises because I have found that it is not possible to: run ALL kits apply ALL patches Rather, it appears that the order is something more like: run ALL kits apply patches 1-18 Configure apply patches 19-twenty-something.... Configure .... Can anyone tell me the order, or do I have to read each patch file to find out when to run Configure? I am trying to write a script to install and build perl automatically. -- Chip White AGFA Compugraphic ...!{decvax,samsung}!cg-atla!white 200 Ballardvale St. Wilmington, Mass. 01887
