Paul Barry writes "Just installed RedHat 8 and was delighted to see that it includes Perl 5.8.0 as standard. Cool." Nice that even a mostly Python shop like Red Hat is keeping up.


And mod_perl

Yes, and it includes a beta version of mod_perl, and a version of apache with mod_cgi broken. If you have a production website, wait a bit until you move to RH 8.0

Wern't there some problems with the 5.8.0 binary that ships with redhat - I know the Template Toolkit list has been seeing some bug reports from users of that system.

Ah, yes, it was mentioned in a P5P Summary

CGI problems?

Please file bugs on how CGI is broken in 8.0.
