The lang/perl5.10 and lang/perl5.16 ports are separate ports that are = marked in their respective Makefiles as conflicting (because they = install files into common places). Perl 5.16 is not an "upgrade" of = Perl 5.10 in the standard ports sense. That is why both the Makefile = and pkgng will complain if you try and install both (e.g., installing = Perl 5.16 when Perl 5.10 is still installed). If you want to switch to lang/perl5.16 from lang/perl5.10 you could = follow a procedure like that outlined in the 20120630 entry of = /usr/ports/UPDATING. Cheers, Paul.=
