Concrete jungle, oh freebsd-questions, you've got to do your best... I'm sorry I put this not into the -perl@ list because there are too many robots there. As far as I see the secondary major number change of the perl version can lead the user to the strange situations as more and more modules are being included into the perl distrinution itself. Combined with the previously installed version from ports they don't seem to be taken care of even by perl-after-upgrade(1). I've just struggled with the recurring problem of (dualvar|weaken|etc) 'is only available with the XS version of Scalar::Util' with a kind of a very simple solution of pkg_delete of p5-Scalar-List-Utils for perl5.14. By far there is a lot of such a modules, next aforeknown is CGI.pm. Although it's not an XS module to make such a size of a trouble but I'm pretty sure there are the ones there. Is it a known thing for me to quickly detect those duplicate modules packages and delete tthem and fix the packages dependent on them or it's a stuff to be made yet? Thank you. 73!
