Well, I'm not going to address the issue that other p5- ports might be so inconsistently named, but that's no reason to do this the wrong way too. :) If there are others that don't call the dir p5-$PORTNAME, we'll address them case by case since there may be a good reason not to. -- wca To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
