Urgent: how to install/enable suidperl (using perl 5.8.8)

i have installed 5.8.8 already... do you think installing this will do?

The 'suidperl' is an optional component which is not installed, or even built, by default.

you meant to say,
i have to install this separately and it cannot be configured with the default perl?

and i need to do this on a linux machine so please make sure the rmp you linked is correct.

sorry,
that is for version 5.6,

The below link gives you the rpm for version 5.8.8:
http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/devel/ppc/perl-suidperl-5.8.8-4.ppc.html

Hope this link will give you the details:

ok, tried that but that reqquire some additional rps, and the other requires some other :(
i am a bit new to this, can you please tell me an easy way of installing all required rpms easily?

i tried with yum! but that too failed to help me... it give me the following when i try to run yum

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/yum", line 6, in ?
    import yummain
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 23, in ?
    import yum
ImportError: No module named yum

** i am trying this as root

i got this fixed by isntalling some other version, now i have yum working....
but when i run
#> yum list updates
