Update recommendations: -----------------------
Since 5.10 is not installed in parallel to 5.8 (it is possible, but not with this package), all your old 5.8 modules will need to be reinstalled for 5.10. Your old 5.8 modules are not deleted, just not accessible to 5.10. Non-binary packages can be used by adding /usr/lib/perl5/site_lib/5.8 to your @INC, but the below procedure is recommended to get the latest version for each installed package. This will not harm most of your previous 5.8 modules in case you want to switch back to 5.8, just the /bin scripts might get overwritten.
BEFORE INSTALLATION of 5.10 ! # get the list of installed 5.8 modules $ perl -MExtUtils::Installed \ -e'print join("\n", new ExtUtils::Installed->modules)' > module.list
AFTER INSTALLATION of 5.10 ! # install all previous modules for 5.10 $ cpan `cat module.list`
@INC: /usr/lib/perl5/5.10/cygwin /usr/lib/perl5/5.10 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10/cygwin /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10/cygwin /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8 .
