Is this the official reason that Perl-5.10 has not been released into the ports tree? Are ports being tied to specific versions of Perl? I did some Googling and found that of the users that have installed Perl from source on FBSD, most were not experiencing any major problem. If every time Perl is updated it will require massive changes or whatever to the FBSD ports, then perhaps there is a fundamental flaw in the ports system to start with. Perhaps you could list what the specific problems are so that others might start looking for solutions. This is really the first time that I have become aware of problems between Perl and the ports system. Just my 2=C2=A2. --=20 Jerry gesbbb@yahoo.com I poured spot remover on my dog. Now he's gone.
