  • What's the easiet way to install this and still be able to use the 5.6.6 version? Not just in beta, but long term, I want to run both.
    • Damnit. Easiest... 5.8.8 version...

      • 5.10.0 installs into c:\strawberry\ and 5.8.8 installs into c:\strawberry-perl\. So they should (ha!) co-exist just fine as long as you go fix up your PATH, LIB and INCLUDE environment variables.

        • I am going to have to say that is a negative on c:\strawberry. I renamed c:\strawberry-perl to something else just to make sure. Sure enough installed at c:\strawberry-perl.
          • I am thinking there is a bigger issue see below:
