Portupgrade would be vastly more useful if portupgrade were to upgrade CPAN.pm modules at the same time it upgrades FreeBSD ports. Given that portupgrade is aware of which perl modules require updating, this functionality should be possible. Example: Check for out of date packages: bison-1.35_1 needs updating (port has 1.75) bsdpan-Archive-Tar-0.22 is obsolete bsdpan-Attribute-Handlers-0.78 is obsolete bsdpan-CGI.pm-2.87 is obsolete bsdpan-CPAN-1.63 is obsolete Thanks, --Lucky To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
