Should I make a link to /usr/bin/perl? Perl has been removed from -current, mainly due to the difficulty of keeping it as up-to-date as people want. People are sweeping through port Makefiles replacing ${PERL} with ${REINPLACE} (aka sed), and it looks like you hit one that they haven't done yet. You can set PERL=/usr/bin/perl in /etc/make.conf (or add the symlink), but eventually you'll want to install the perl port and blow away /usr/bin/perl and /usr/libdata/perl. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
