In my experience, the suggested command from UPDATING (i.e. "portupgrade -f `pkg shlib -qR libperl.so.5.20`") will *NOT* create the symlinks. This is even explicitly stated during build: > ################################################## > > This is *NOT* the DEFAULT perl version > > It will *NOT* install /usr/local/bin/perl > > It will *ONLY* install /usr/local/bin/perl5.24.1 > > The default Perl version currently is 5.20. > > If you want to use this version as the default, > stop the build now, add this line to your > /etc/make.conf, and then restart the build. > > DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=perl5=5.24 > > ################################################## In contrast to what is stated, this will happen regardless of the presence of any "DEFAULT_VERSION+=perl..." in /etc/make.conf. A subsequent "portupgrade -f perl5.24" will create them, though. bye av.
