Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-perl mailing l=
ist
<perl@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 227356: lang/perl5.26: suggestion to set DEFAULT_VERSIONS=3Dperl5=3D5.2=
6 does
not work if perl5.24 installed
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D227356



--- Description ---
A pre-everything check in lang/perl5.26 suggest that the user can set
DEFAULT_VERSIONS=3Dperl5=3D5.26 in make.conf to make perl5.26 install files=
 as the
default perl (bin/perl, bin/perl5, etc.).  This fails if a different perl
(e.g., perl5.24) is already installed.

Even if this behavior is not changed, the wording of the pre-everything mes=
sage
should probably be clarified to account for this case.
