Package perl5100-core-5.10.0-6

Perl is a high-level programming language with roots in C, sed, awk and shell scripting. Perl is good at handling processes and files, and is especially good at handling text. Perl's hallmarks are practicality and efficiency. While it is used to do a lot of different things, Perl's most common applications are system administration utilities and web programming. A large proportion of the CGI scripts on the web are written in Perl. Fink's perl packages retain the perl version subdirectories in the lib tree. Without these, upgrading or downgrading Perl breaks all of the binary modules.
