summary: In which I install Perl 5.10.1
title: Perl 5.10.1 released
---

[Perl 5.10.1](http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-authors/id/D/DA/DAPM/perl-5.10.1.tar.bz2) [has been released](http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2009/08/msg150172.html).  You can download it from the CPAN, or if you can't wait, [here](http://www.iabyn.com/tmp/perl-5.10.1.tar.bz2).

Next, you need to build it:

{% highlight bash %}
mkdir ~/perl/5.10.1
cd ~/code/build/perl-5.10.1
perl Configure -de -Dprefix=${HOME}/perl/5.10.1/
make
make test
make install
{% endhighlight %}

Add the path to your environment

{% highlight bash %}
export PATH=${HOME}/perl/5.10.1/bin:$PATH
{% endhighlight %}

and install your CPAN's modules:

{% highlight bash %}
PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1 cpan Bundle::CPANxxl Task::Kensho
{% endhighlight %}

Now you can start to play with it :)
