Version of Perl updated in Linux

Every time you learn a piece of software, you need to pack a bunch of things, and there are requirements for Perl or Pyhton versions. Feel the time spent on software maintenance is very long, if there is a super computer, each company to apply for a server above, there is a dedicated administrator to maintain the good, need to update just as long as the administrator said a sound good.

Back to the chase, update Perl.

1. To Perl's official website the next compressed package: http://www.perl.org/get.html, I chose perl5.25.0.

2. Then unzip the perl-5.25.0.tar.gz under/USR/LOCAL/SRC

3. After decompression CD perl-5.25

4. Then executed a bit of this code, although not understand what it means:./configure-des-dprefix=/usr/local/perl-dusethreads-uversiononly

5. Then make, make install, no error, then the installation was successful.

If you have Perl installed on your computer before, you can use the following settings

6.cd/usr/bin

7.MV Perl perl.old #将perl之前的perl设置为旧的

8.ln-s/usr/bin/perl/usr/local/bin/perl5.25.0

And then use Perl-v to view the time, is the new version.
