 you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades.

+  The default Perl version has been switched to Perl 5.20.  If you are using
+  binary packages to upgrade your system, you do not have anything to do, pkg
+  upgrade will do the right thing.  For the other people, assuming you are
+  migrating from 5.18 to 5.20, do:
+
+  Portupgrade users:
+	portupgrade -o lang/perl5.20 -f lang/perl5.18
+
+	portupgrade -f `pkg shlib -R libperl.so.5.18|tail +2`
+
+  Portmaster users:
+	portmaster -o lang/perl5.20 lang/perl5.18
+
+	portmaster -f `pkg shlib -R libperl.so.5.18|tail +2`
+
+  IMPORTANT:
+    In case you have not updated your system in a while, and specifically,
+    followed the 20141126 instructions regarding the new Perl layout, you
+    should follow those more extensive instructions rather than the
+    conservative presented here.
