System: FreeBSD db1.leeym.com 6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE #0: Fri Jan 12 10:40:27 UTC 2007 root@dessler.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386
>Description:
The minimal required Perl version can be set in many place (see USE_PERL5_STRING)
Currently, USE_PERL5 will be always overwriten to "yes" if PERL_CONFIGURE is set.
So, in some cases, for example textproc/p5-XML-Atom, USE_PERL5 (and USE_PERL5_STRING) will be overwriten, and mislead want_perl_ver and other internal variables.
The following patch is a kind of workaround, maybe not the best solution.
>How-To-Repeat:
(in perl 5.6 environment)
root@db1:/usr/ports/textproc/p5-XML-Atom [5.5-RELEASE]# make
===> p5-XML-Atom-0.27 requires Perl or later, install lang/perl5.8 and try again.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/textproc/p5-XML-Atom.
($want_perl_ver is empty ?!)
