>Description:
When I tried to make the package mirror 2.8 the system tried to fetch
and install perl 5.00401 although I have 5.00403 installed.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install perl 5.00403 on your system, goto "/usr/pksrc/net/mirror" and
enter "make depend all".
>Fix:
Add a more clever check for installed perl binaries.
