Thanks for taking the time to respond.

I wrote "The steps I'm planning to follow are: ...". It looks like most, if not all, of your first paragraph is based on an assumption that I have completed (or at least attempted) these steps. I haven't performed any of the steps shown: the order of these steps and the details of any individual step may change based on responses to my post (in fact, thanks to your next point, one has changed already).

By the way, it's "-Dusethreads" (no "i").

Thanks for the correction. I've updated my post.

I found instances of useithreads in perlthrtut, perl -V output and Config.pm but I haven't seen usethreads anywhere. Could you point me to documentation where -D values are described?

By the way, I call my installs 5.14.2 and 5.14.2t. No need for the leading "perl-", no need for some long descriptor.

Thanks for the advice. The perl- prefix was based on usage throughout perlbrew. The suffixes are just a matter of personal preference.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


No such thing as a small change
