Isn't the recommended practice to reinstall all perl related ports after
upgrading perl to a new minor version?
Taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING :
20110517:
AFFECTS: users of lang/perl*
AUTHOR: skv@FreeBSD.org
lang/perl5.14 is out. If you want to switch to it from, for example
lang/perl5.12, that is:
Portupgrade users:
0) Fix pkgdb.db (for safety):
pkgdb -Ff
1) Reinstall new version of Perl (5.14):
env DISABLE_CONFLICTS=1 portupgrade -o lang/perl5.14 -f
perl-5.12.\*
2) Reinstall everything that depends on Perl:
portupgrade -fr perl
Portmaster users:
portmaster -o lang/perl5.14 lang/perl5.12
Conservative:
portmaster p5-
Comprehensive (but perhaps overkill):
portmaster -r perl-
Note: If the "perl-" glob matches more than one port you will need to
specify the name of the Perl directory in /var/db/pkg explicitly.

Jase.
