There are two ports in the ports tree for Exiftool, graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool, which tracks production releases, and graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool-devel, which tracks development releases. Since 9.03 is a development release (latest production release is 9.01) this update should be made to graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool-devel instead of graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool. For that reason, I do not approve this update. I will be submitting an update to graphics/p5-Image-ExifTool to update it to 9.01 shortly. Thanks, Tod McQuillin
