perl upgrade problems

Hi, I guess I recently updated my perl to 5.16. I guess it broke something, since I can't use IO::Socket::IP or IO::Socket::INET anymore. I always get this error.

Perl API version v5.14.0 of Socket does not match v5.16.0 at /usr/share/perl5/core_perl/XSLoader.pm line 92.
Compilation failed in require at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/IO/Socket.pm line 12.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/IO/Socket.pm line 12.
Compilation failed in require at (eval 2) line 2.
	...propagated at /usr/share/perl5/core_perl/base.pm line 84.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/site_perl/IO/Socket/IP.pm line 10.
Compilation failed in require at test.pl line 4.

I've tried reinstalling perl, uninstalling then reinstalling it, and even deleting /usr/share/perl5/ and reinstalling, still the same problem no matter what I do. Any solutions?

Re: perl upgrade problems

Just like every other perl upgrade -- you built/installed those things yourself, so you need to take care of them.

I've tried rebuilding them, is there something else I'm missing? I figured installing IO::Socket::IP with cpan would fix it, so I'm sorta at a dead end.

Thanks for the response.

EDIT: Sorry, I figured it out. Needed to rebuild "Socket". I figured cpan would rebuild the dependency since it upgraded.

Thanks!
