Dear All:

RedHat released a newer mod_perl RPM (not yet documented,
but present in all the ftp update repositories) which
looks like it resolves the conflict with perl 5.6.1.

I have not yet tested new mod_perl with new perl.... 
but anyways check-rpms strategy should again work \
seamlessly to upgrade a LON-CAPA box.

Regards,
Scott
