Will Perl be updated in cPanel?

[analog2112]

Hello,

I was looking to see if I could find anything on if perl will ever be updated from 5.8? Like this post, I'd like to have at least 5.10 myself but I don't want to mess with the base install and because I use mod_perl, I think that would be the only way.

Perl 5.8.8 is almost 7 years old which makes me wonder if it would ever be updated.

Thanks

I would recommend referring to the following: cPanel & WHM 11.36 Release Notes

Thanks for the link, so is that saying that WHM and CPANEL uses its own perl install and a system update to a later perl would have now effect on CPANEL?

TIA

Yes, you can now update Perl as per your requirements with no effect on cPanel
