The latest bento run on 5.0 is the first to build without perl
present: previously, two of the portbuild scripts were written in
perl, so I had to always pkg_add it into the chroot environment. Now
that these scripts have been rewritten in C and I have stopped doing
the pkg_add, it is exposing all the ports that should have a
dependency on perl but currently do not.
At least 700 additional ports are breaking for this reason. Many of
them are using ${PERL} to do patching-in-place, and these should be
converted to use REINPLACE_CMD/USE_REINPLACE. Others use perl
during the build and should set USE_PERL.
Everyone please check
http://bento.freebsd.org/errorlogs/5-latest/index-maintainer.html
ASAP and fix the listed problems. Note that I am aware of two
problems with the recent build:
1) Port builds are being killed after 1 hour, instead of after 1 hour
*without output*. This is a bug in the aforementioned C code.
2) Ports that use PERL_CONFIGURE should automatically get a dependency
on perl in bsd.port.mk. Apparently someone has submitted a patch for
this already, but I don't immediately know where it is to test it.
