If you look above in the original message from me, you'll see the list of ports that were installed when I overrode the setting in pkgtools.conf, i.e., to not hold bsdpan stuff. That's what hosed cpan for me. Now I'm stuck with that & no matter what I try to do with cpan, I get the output that's listed above in the original part of this message. There are some ports that won't even install now, using portupgrade, due to this problem. I really don't know where to go from here, unless maybe it's to cvsup RELENG_5 instead of just RELENG_5_4 & try rebuilding everything.
