>Description:
Configure script comes with perl5 looks for additional libraries
in /usr/local/{lib,include}. perl5 port build can fail if you have
something incompatible with perl5.
Typical example is /usr/local/include/db.h installed by sleepycat db
package (/usr/ports/databases/db).
To stabilize port make, I think that perl5 port should ignore
anything in /usr/local/{include,lib}.
Advantage: stabilize port make
Disadvantage: you cannot take advantage of perl5 extra library support,
such as GNU gdbm support, to be installed automatically.
(I'm a committer but I'd like to have maintainer's opinion so
I'm performing send-pr)
>How-To-Repeat:
1. install sleepycat db (/usr/ports/databases/db) from ports
or packages
2. try to build perl5 (/usr/ports/lang/perl).
Configure output will say that "db.h" you have on the system
is incompatible with perl5. Therefore, "DB_File" perl5 library
will not be built.
3. you'll see make will fail to perform "make install", due to
missing manpage for "DB_File" perl5 library.
>Fix:
apply the following patch to the currently existing perl5 port.
