#
# This small repo contains a patched version of perl to fix
# the issues raised on : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=379791
# for CentOS-5. Only i386 and x86_64 packages are provided.
#
# There has been some testing done on the centos-devel list, however you
should
# still test it yourself before deploying into production
#
# to install these packages :
# cd /etc/yum.repos.d/; wget
http://people.centos.org/z00dax/bz379791/bz379791.repo
# yum --enablerepo=c5-bz379791 update perl
