What's the easiest approach to get these >perl scripts to work without a lot of modifications? Does it really need to run non-chroot? You could include a /mnt/sysimage -> / symlink inside chroot if you have hard-coded paths in the perl script. Otherwise, you need to let perl find the library it needs. libperl.so lives in rpath, so this might work (untested): %post cd /usr/lib ln -s /mnt/sysimage/usr/lib/perl5 /mnt/sysimage/usr/bin/perl your-script.pl I found the rpath like this: $ readelf -a perl |grep rpath 0x0000000f (RPATH) Library rpath: [/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE] Hope this helps, Phil
