Error executing emerge-e system!

Trying to install Gentoo( stage 1), bootstrap the system, and then execute emerge -e system but everytime it fails to complete. I get an error message that says "dev-libs/openssl-0.9.7e -r1 failed, function src_compile, line 158; exitcode 1 config failed. You need Perl 5." I have tried this about three times and have altered my USE variables to elimate SSL but my system insists on installing this package. What can I alter to elimate this problem?

try emerge perl and then emerge -e system. By the way, I'm not sure that if you boot strap the -e is necissary, worked ok for me without it, but I could just be lucky I guess.

did you alter your use flags before 'emerge -e system'?

and btw: if you are not forced to do a stage 1 install you might want to consider Installing Gentoo 2005.0: Stage 1 NPTL on a Stage 3 Tarball
