No, you need to install the /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8 to get perl 5.8.x. Then if you keep your ports collection up-to-date the other commands (such as portversion) will tell you when a newer port is available. Don't forget to do # use.perl port if you want the port's perl to be the system default. --=20 http://freebsdwiki.org/ - Encrypted mail welcome - keyid 0xBF15490B --JefYhWJ8RkX3aR0a Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFAwB/WIJm2TL8VSQsRAvymAJ9POL2iYAZo1oSzm0kQi2yFoAEuvQCg6Fhi 2LcIpbHo9FRk1d7R+T+yJOk= =RWEl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --JefYhWJ8RkX3aR0a--
