I'm not a Perl programmer, so what's your opinion: is this behavior a I am experiencing the same problem "/etc/ikiwiki/custom: failed to set up the repository with ikiwiki-makerepo " on Debian squeeze with perl5.10.0. Upgrading to ikiwiki 3.10 fixes it. -- [Albert](http://www.docunext.com/) + +---- + +Just a note, perl 5.10 isn't packaged as part of RHEL or thus CentOS nor EPEL, +so it's not especially trivial to satisfy that requirement for ikiwiki on +those platforms, without backporting it from Fedora or building from source. +However, I have an ikiwiki 3.20100403 running on RHEL-4 supplied 5.8.8 without +(seemingly too much) complaint. How strong is the 5.10 requirement? what +precicely breaks without it? -- [[Jon]] + +> I don't remember what was the specific problem with perl 5.8.8.
