Perhaps this has more to do with my lack of understanding of how |
18 |
overlays work more than anything else. Based on what you've said I |
19 |
should just be able to unmask perl 5.10, and emerge perl and that should |
20 |
work just install base perl, and perhaps all the modules i had installed |
21 |
for 5.8.8 (that exist in portage anyway)? |

I was looking at instructions in a wiki somewhere, which i of course |
24 |
can't find now. (not the one linked from the thread about catalyst in |
25 |
the forums). For some reason that article made me think using the |
26 |
overlay was an all or nothing deal. |
