Hi, are there packages replacing the ancient perl version in Centos 7 with a more recent one, like 5.24? At least the state feature is required.

...to explicitly use > that version. Not replacing the existing system Perl is a feature, not a bug. It allows the 'Enterprise' side of CentOS to keep going with no unexpected surprises. > I?m not sure if that?s possible for CGI. I do get 5.24 after > running 'scl enable rh-perl524 bash'.

That must be someone?s backport. As someone who migrated a mod_perl based app off of mod_perl several years ago, I recommend that you do not use it, unless you have old mod_perl based software that you cannot migrate to newer technologies like FastCGI, Plack, etc. I hope this does not...
