Perl - How to uninstall? Will pkgrm uninstall all versions?
Hello,
I'm working on a Solaris 9/Sparc machine and it has the Solaris 10 version of Perl (5.8.8) installed on it, which always requires all kinds of library files that Solaris 9 doesn't come with. I think the best way to do is to uninstall this wrong version and install the correct Solaris 9 version. How can I do this properly? PKGRM is the option I know, but will 'pkgrm perl' uninstall all versions of Perl including those two (5.0.0 something and 5.6.4) came with Solaris?
Thanks.
Alan
