I'm not "mixing" anything. I have *NO* FreeBSD ports collection perl modules installed, at all. pkg_info | grep "^p5-" (empty) I *only* have CPAN modules installed. gettext is installed on my system via CPAN. I am trying to get help2man to work with a CPAN-only installation. It does not. *IT* is trying to "mix" a port-perl-module, not me. (ORIGINAL POST) i've FreeBSD 6.2p installed. perl588 is port-installed, and perl modules are installed/managed with cpanp. i.e., i do NOT use the p5-* ports. on my sys, pkg_info | grep gettext gettext-0.16.1_3 GNU gettext package & module_info gettext Name: gettext Version: 1.05 Directory: /usr/local/ports/gettext-1.05 File: /usr/local/ports/gettext-1.05/gettext.pm Core module: no despite the prereq gettext perlmod being in-place, @ each port-update/upgrade, i get a stale-dependency message, .. ---> Checking the package registry database Stale dependency: help2man-1.36.4_1 -> p5-gettext-1.05_1 (devel/p5-Locale-gettext): Skipped.
