I've tried a few times in the past couple days, using a few different versions/archives to get the Perl language interpreter installed on my 3.9 box, but I've not gotten it to work right yet. The closest i got was calling it on the command line, and getting a software failure from it (The Failure Formerly Known As Guru Meditation). It also complained about an inability to create a temporary file, and asked about AmiTCP: , which I don't think I've installed yet. (I don't plan on doing any network-based stuff with perl, just local stuff, so I didn't see that as being an issue.)
Anyway, Is there some sort of trick to getting it working? Or do I have to do an AmiTCP install to get it working?
I installed 3 different versions from Aminet, along with ixemul.library (for the 68020, since that's the cpu emulation I'm working with here...).
Any pointers or suggestions are appreciated.

Nevermind. figured it out. heh.
I first installed the base GG stuff, and got that all configured, and now perl is nice and happy.
I ended up installing the GCC toolchain as well, adapted the instructions from here:
