Fink and Perl 5.8

installed Perl 5.8 and am having a lot of problems. All of the problems
stem from having Fink installed
(http://archive.develooper.com/macosx@perl.org/msg02447.html) Can I just
reinstall, or uninstall/install (difference?) to do this, and after
isntalling a module that is an XS module after I install Perl 5.8 does it
interfer? What the hell is an XS module and how do I know which is one
and which isn't? And if I install modules or software and get those
undefined symbol error messages during the tests are they still installed
and usable? Fink says to fix all this just
sudo mv /sw/lib/perl5/darwin/Storable.pm /tmp
sudo mv /sw/lib/perl5/darwin/auto/Storable /tmp
fink rebuild storable-pm
fink selfupdate-cvs
Whereas the mailing list tells me to do it to a lot of software, which
one?
Finally (albiet a little off subject) when I install software (Perl
moduals in particular) via Fink does manually installed software need to
be altered to know where everything is stored?
