Thanks for the replies. I chose Markus' solution: > pkg_deinstall -f perl-5.8.9_7 > pkgdb -F > ^^that should fix it after smashing by pkg_deinstall -f it ;) > if problems, you need to rebuild the new perl again.... over Milki's: > Portupgrade users: > 0) Fix pkgdb.db (for safety): > pkgdb -Ff >=20 > 1) Reinstall new version of Perl (5.16): > env DISABLE_CONFLICTS=3D1 portupgrade -o lang/perl5.16 -f = perl-5.12.\* >=20 > 2) Reinstall everything that depends on Perl: > portupgrade -fr perl ...but suspect I should have chosen Milki's. In fact, I did have to = rebuild the new perl after the two steps in Markus' solution. Thanks for the quick responses! --Paul Hoffman=
