Since this port can't be built as a package it's probably been overlooked. Didn't test it very far after installing Perl 5.8.0 as it's very obtuse to configure. >How-To-Repeat: Install port using -DUSE_THIS_PERL on your commandline and sit back and watch the mess ensue. >Fix: Force usage of perl 5.8.0 in the Makefile, obviously make /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8 a dependancy of /usr/ports/www/interchange and remove -DUSE_THIS_PERL >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
