Perl isn't included in the 2007 Hacker Edition OS. I was shocked to find that out _after_ upgrading, as lots of the functionality (for me) of the 770 is based around perl scripts I've written (!!agh!!)

I just force-installed these two packages and so far things are working fine.

I got the .deb files onto the 770 with wget, but use whatever method you use.

Once I did, I ran:
(as root)
# dpkg -i --force-depends perl-base_5.8.8-11_armel.deb

and once that was finished,

# dpkg -i --force-depends perl_5.8.8-11_armel.deb

Now my module-free perl hacks are working again. I've only done preliminary testing as to how much the dependency errors matter, so I'll post any new problems (and hopefully their solutions!) here.
