https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200560 Bug ID: 200560 Summary: lang/perl5: wrong dependencies pre-5.20 upgrade Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: philk@rotfl.com.au On 20150513 the default Perl version changed from 5.18 to 5.20. There is no security reason to upgrade to 5.20, so many people, including myself have not done it. There is a current security vulnerability with php5, and when I try to use pkg upgrade to install it, it says this... # pkg upgrade php5 Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue... FreeBSD repository is up-to-date. All repositories are up-to-date. The following 2 package(s) will be affected (of 0 checked): New packages to be INSTALLED: perl5.18: 5.18.4_14 Installed packages to be UPGRADED: php5: 5.4.40 -> 5.4.41 The problem is that Perl v5.18 is already installed, and pkg is going to try and install it again as a side-by-side port. It doesn't even offer to upgrade Perl 5.18 to 5.20. This is definitely wrong. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
