Can anyone provide details on if a workaround exists for the growing

Mac::Carbon

24841
File::HomeDir

I'm in need of installing DBI on my MacBook.
As a general practice I was going to 'install Bundle::CPAN'
and then install DBI.

Neither of them can be installed.
Not happy.


You should probably be asking this on the mac perl list:
macosx@xxxxxxxxx You can subscribe at perl.org.

You should be able, though, to just skip the CPAN upgrade for now. The
one that comes the default 5.8.6 installation in Tiger should be just
fine. Just install DBI and worrk about CPAN and Mac::Carbon later.

when you're ready to tackle the Intel issues, head over to macosx@.

HTH,
