But it's not: I'm using several modules that aren't >available from Ports, and of course the modules I'm *developing* >aren't available from Ports. Which specific modules are not available? In the past I had to port a few Perl modules into FreeBSD or else install them via CPAN as you have done. If it is a simple module, I can show you how to do it or make a port for it myself. Also, you should be aware that many modules are available in the ports system, but not under the correct CPAN name. Don't ask why; I did once and got so much BS that I just abandoned the question. -- Jerry ♔ Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
