Up till now I've kept Perl on my machine at 5.8.9. I now see from UPDATING that upgrading to 5.10 is recommended.
However, when I follow the instructions, I get the following error:
laptop# portupgrade -o lang/perl5.10 -f perl-5.8.9_3
---> Upgrading 'perl-5.8.9_3' to 'perl-5.10.1' (lang/perl5.10)
---> Building '/usr/ports/lang/perl5.10'
===> Cleaning for perl-5.10.1
===> perl-5.10.1 conflicts with installed package(s):
perl-5.8.9_3
They install files into the same place.
Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).

** Fix the problem and try again.

Any advice on how to fix?
Thanks in advance.
