--Kj7319i9nmIyA2yE Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable While trying out a threaded Apache (and thus a threaded Perl), I read that I had to reinstall all of my XS modules. So, off to "portupgrade -f 'p5-*'" (and others later, of course) I go. But that's hitting a lot of modules that don't use XS. Would it be unfeasible to demarcate XS=20 modules by package name, like p5-DBI-XS? Then I can do=20 "portupgrade -f 'p5-*XS*'" and just get the XS modules. I'm not fully knowledgeable about how the ports tree works with something like this, but I'd be glad to help implement it. Speaking of Perl, has anyone looked at ports/61444? It's been sitting untended for about three weeks. I understand that Perl's important, but I wouldn't think that it'd take three weeks to test an upgrade PR. Thanks for listening. Best regards, Christopher Nehren --=20 I abhor a system designed for the "user", if that word is a coded pejorative meaning "stupid and unsophisticated". -- Ken Thompson - Please CC me in all replies, even if I'm on the relevant list(s). --Kj7319i9nmIyA2yE Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFAI9Cuk/lo7zvzJioRAuTIAKCmFO8vBb9awpAql5sKllhkg7EmJACgoDJv 2Wqg3b1j4bAuOmVANpKauDU= =xyq9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Kj7319i9nmIyA2yE--
