    Welcome to ActivePerl.

    
This installer can install ActivePerl in any location of your choice.
    
You do not need root privileges.  Howeverplease make sure that you
    have write access to this location
.

Enter top level directory for install [/usr/local/ActivePerl-5.8]
Installing to /usr/local/ActivePerl-5.8.

    
ActivePerl includes Programmer's Package Manager version 3, which
    includes many improvements.

    One of these enhancements enables you to keep track of your installed
    packages through the PPM Profiles functionality.  PPM will automatically
    communicate your package installs and updates securely and transparently
    to your ASPN Profile.  Such saved Profiles are useful for various
    purposes, including tracking, migrating, reinstalling, upgrading, or
    restoring PPM packages in one or more locations.

    Using the profile functionality requires installing a license for
    ASPN Perl.  You can always disable or enable the Profile feature later
    within PPM3.
