For the PF> moment my resolution is to install perl 5.6.1 (a slight upgrade PF> from the default 5.6.0 included with the OS) I haven't tried perl 5.8.0 myself yet. I presume that there will not be any issue with my code, but obviously I haven't tested it. My best suggestion is to install the ifeffit wrapper by itself without athena. (If you are using an older ifeffit distribution which has an athena subdirectory under wrapper/perl/, delete the athena subdirectory before building the wrapper.). Then install athena afterwards. My next, and more annoying, suggestion, is to clean up any traces of ifeffit's perl inteface (i.e. any instances of the files Ifeffit.pm, Ifeffit.bs, and Ifeffit.so) then try again. All of this points to something that I brought up on the list a while ago and which Matt has been advocating for. It would probably be best to make on big package with the the Ifeffit/perl inteface and my programs all bundled together and distributed separately from Ifeffit. I'll look into that next month.
