You will probably find a symbolic link from /usr/bin/perl5-003 to /usr/bin/perl

Delete that and make a new link from /usr/bin/perl5.6.1 to /usr/bin/perl

Look around, may be it is in /usr/local/bin

I think there is some problem.Because I can not change anything in
/usr/dist.That is the point.The perl5 file and the perl5 profile.So that
I get there ,but can do nothing.
