>Description:
The /usr/ports/devel/p5-subversion port is using category "perl" instead of "perl5", which causes the following error when trying to build the port:

# make
p5-subversion-1.5.0: Makefile error: category perl not in list of valid categories.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/devel/p5-subversion.

Changing line 9 from:

CATEGORIES+=    perl

to

CATEGORIES+=    perl5

appears to fix the problem.

I'm not bothering to include a patch for a single character change. :) Also, I may be wrong that perl5 is the proper category. It was my guess based on other p5-* ports.

Thanks!
Josh
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/devel/p5-subversion
make

>Fix:
See description, changing line 9 to use category "perl5" instead of "perl" seems to do the trick.
