[OpenIndiana-discuss] Hipster upgrade problem

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Dear all,

Whereas my first oi151_a9 installation upgraded noiselessly, the second one runs into a catch 22 situation around Perl. Perl 5.10 sits the way of a 5.22 to-be-installed version while removing it first will not work due to lots of fundamental packages depending on Perl. Anyone an idea how to handle this situation gracefully?

Cheers
Stefan
