I was wondering since I updated my perl to 5.8.8 (a while ago) could I
still use CamelBones or is CB tied to 5.8.6. I'm working on Tiger and
at this time I'm not going to be upgrading anytime soon to Leopard.
But I was just wondering if I could have CB use my /usr/local/bin/
perl?

Any suggestions would be great.

CB 1.0.3 is pretty well tied to Perl 5.8.6 as the last version it
recognizes; if you try to use CB on Leopard (which has 5.8.8), it
explodes.  However, Sherm Pendley has mentioned before on the
camelbones-devel mailing list that a Leopard-friend 1.1.0 version of
CB is due any day now, which would of necessity have 5.8.8 support.

Presumably 1.1.0 will be able use Perl 5.8.8 even under Tiger if
detected; having glanced at the CB source before, the framework /does/
seem to look for whatever the 'most recent recognized' version of Perl
you have available is.  Doubtless the author could answer more
definitively, though. :)
