Re: Solving XS and dyld issues on Perl Mac OS X

G'day ait,

Responses to "Are there any major Perl issues with Mac OS X Lion?" may be of use to you.

Indeed.   The Perl versions that ship with Lion vs. Snow Leopard are entirely different.   You will need to prepare your (earnestly awaited!) tutorial with careful parallel references to both, as both are now in common use and are likely to be for some time to come.

Off topic, but related: I was trying to figure out what percentages of users were on the different OSX versions but my google fu is weak on this one. Seems like Apple would tell us their platform statistics.

I was assuming that in practice there is probably very few people still on Snow Leopard... yet I am still on Snow Leopard so maybe it is more common.

Keep in mind last version that works on PowerPC is Leopard 10.5.8, there's plenty of old G5s out there.
