What's the perl version in 8.0?

[codenamezero]

Could someone tell me the version of perl that came with 8.0?
i was trying to do some more hacking and did a pkg_add -r perl and override the existing package...

Now i'm getting this:

Code:

freenas# perl
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libperl.so" not found, required by "perl"

So trying to find out the existing version and perhaps run portupgrade to upgrade it.

I'm using recent nightly version, FreeNAS-8r7661-amd64.
I guess 8.0 has the same version.

[root@jnas] /mnt/jtorrent/.transmission# perl -v

This is perl 5, version 12, subversion 4 (v5.12.4) built for amd64-freebsd

I end up fixing my perl the ghetto way... and it seem to work.

Code:

freenas# cd /mnt/FREENAS
freenas# mkdir perl
freenas# cd perl
freenas# pkg_add -r perl -K
freenas# tar -xjf perl.tbz -C /mnt/FREENAS/perl/
freenas# cp /mnt/FREENAS/perl/lib/perl5/5.10.1/mach/CORE/libperl.so /lib
freenas# perl -v

This is perl, v5.10.1 (*) built for amd64-freebsd

/mnt/FREENAS is my actual RAID5 storage location, since we have so little space under / i was actually unable to install the new perl properly, it didn't have enough space to untar the whole thing (which may explain the reason why it messed up the initial perl install).

So i end up getting the package again, and dump it in my storage location and untar it there.
