Perl upgrade problems.

Perl upgrade problems.

Alle,

  I'm trying to upgrade perl on a new install of RH7.3. I updated all errata
and packages and have dowloaded perl 5.8.0 from
pub/redhat/linux/updates/current/en/os/SRPMS. When I try to build from
source, I get dependency problems (not unexpected) so I try to build the
depended upon packages.

[root@(protected) SRPMS]# rpm --rebuild --target i686 perl-5 (See http://erl-5.ora-code.com).8.0-88.3.src.rpm

[root@(protected) updates]#

  I built tcl-devel with no problem, but when I try to upgrade the existing
installation, I get this. Anyone tried this before?
