I've compiled Perl 5.8.7 on my Raq-4i without a problem, and using the CPAN module it's been installed into /usr/local as per it's standard configuration. I noticed that Sun's Linux setup has perl 5.0 as the default Perl offering and I'm wondering how I can actually go about replacing it with 5.8.7? Is there a way to do this without shutting down the server? Can I simply change the links to make /usr/bin/perl point to /usr/local/bin/perl (the 5.8.7 front-end), and then delete the old 5.0 installation including it's directories? Also, how can I change the php installation so it supports the 'gettext()' function? I have a few sites running on my raq-4i using phpBB and the gallery2 package, and those two packages need to have gettext() available to support proper international language support.
