Hi Tony,
I would use cvsup to update your ports tree.
You can use %make buildworld, to reinstall system
perl. Look in /etc/make.conf for NOPERL var to
unset accordingly to if you want to build it=20
or not.
You can also try to install perl from ports. Then
you can use %use.perl ports, or %use.perl system
To define which perl your system will use.=20
You can also try deinstalling some p5- modules.
Hope this helps,
Robert
