 *perl-5.6.1-r8 (13 Oct 2002)
 
   22 Nov 2002; <mcummings@gentoo.org>
 
+  Added einfo note (finally) to instruct users to install MakeMaker
+  patch. Also added catch for cases where -gdbm and -berkdb are in 
+  the use flags - perl requires at least one of them to be available
+
   Second incantation of -r8. This time, it is for LC_ALL=C being added to 
   the ebuild itself. Perl won't compile correctly otherwise and handles
   internationaliztion post install.
