>Description:
After install perl modules using cpan and they are installed with no origin
when you have a number of these installed using pkg_add produces a huge
amount of spam about missing origins. As this is always the case for
packages auto created by cpan the patch below would be usefull.
The patch prevents this warning if its a bsdpan package and its not in verbose.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a few perl cpan modules and then use pkg_add to add a new package.
>Fix:
The patch below was created against 5.4-RELEASE-p2 source
