Hi again, I'm getting a strange problem whenever I run perl, I get this output :-
perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = (unset), LC_ALL = (unset), LANG = "en_GB"
Interesting. I had perl reporting locale problems after an upgrade of gdm (I think) had my LANG environment variable set to 'english' rather than a proper locale name. I fixed it at the time by editing the /etc/locale.alias file to map this to something sensible.
My LANG variable is now set to en_GB.ISO-8859-1 and perl works fine.
