 * From: Ollivier Robert <roberto@keltia.freenix.fr>

 * According to Mark Murray:

 * 
 * Be aware that CPAN doesn't solve the dependencies between packages. During
 * build you'll see that a few are missing (A require B and so on) but it
 * won't get them for you.
 * 
 * I use CPAN a lot but it is not a miracle.

Can someone tell me how this works?

Also, are you guys (some of you anyway) suggesting to remove all the
p5-* ports from the tree?  (That's going to make the ports tree shrink
by almost 100, but given the recent mess I'm not sure if I'll shed any
tears. ;)
