When I was transitioning to High Sierra, I installed the Apple developer tools using xcode-select -install, and then installed MacPorts. Installing ImageMagick installed Perl 5.28. (The reason for this complexity is that you can't change /usr/bin due to System Integrity Protection.)įor Mojave, I installed the full Xcode and the command line extensions, and then installed MacPorts. The risk is that modules you just installed will not be found, and attempts to install ports will fail with messages about variants.įix this by making /usr/local/bin/perl a symlink to the MacPorts version of Perl in /opt/local/bin/perl before updating CPAN,Īnd making sure that all library Perl programs and modules use #!/usr/local/bin/perl as their "shebang" line. The version of Perl executed by programs will depend on the shebang line at the top of the file, and that is where library files will be searched for. If you then update CPAN, it will install Perl modules into that version's libraries. On recent versions of OS X, installing certain ports will cause Macports to install a later version of Perl (on Sierra, it installed 5.24, and 5.26 for High Sierra and Mojave). This is a small loss since the versions they had been shipping with the OS were usually downrev.įor Catalina, I will install a later version of Perl, as a side effect of the various ports I install.Īpple provides Perl 5.16 with Mavericks and Yosemite, and 5.18.2 with El Capitan, Sierra, High Sierra, and Mojave.)

You can use either or use both and install some packages with one tool and some with the other. Macports provides hundreds of Open Source Unix tools compiled for OS X, free. ![]()
