I don't claim to understand "/usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk" very much, but it
seems to me that we have an undesirable interaction between `USE_PERL5' and
`RUN_DEPENDS' there.
.if defined(USE_PERL5)
BUILD_DEPENDS+= perl5.004:${PORTSDIR}/lang/perl5
RUN_DEPENDS+= perl5.004:${PORTSDIR}/lang/perl5
.endif
If one is trying to install a P5- module (eg: p5-CGI_Lite), this
causes the build to look for "/usr/ports/lang/perl5".
Now this shouldn't be necessary, as Perl5 could have been installed
and present in ${PREFIX}/bin/perl5.
Further dependency registration fails (seems to be looking in
"/usr/ports/lang/perl5") again instead of "/var/db/pkg/.../" to register
its dependencies.
Thus make install fails --- is there something I'm doing wrong?
Running 3.0-current as of a week back.
