I'd say the port's deprecated and to use the system builtin. :) : :Doug White :Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve :http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | www.freebsd.org Well, yes and no. It seems rather weird for perl to be part of the system dist, but that alone isn't a big deal. My worry is that the system version perl5 is not going to be kept as up to date as the port version of perl5. For example, the current system perl5 appears to be 5.004 while the port perl5 is 5.005. -Matt Matthew Dillon Engineering, HiWay Technologies, Inc. & BEST Internet Communications & God knows what else.
