--==========49268BD752F1318E9C11========== Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline +-le 01/06/2004 21:07 -0400, Christopher Nehren a dit : | In regard to the new Perl version, ports/UPDATING has of course been | changed with some instructions on how to proceed. It includes some real | voodoo which really shows the beauty of Unix. But wouldn't 'portupgrade | -rf perl\*5.8.4' be much simpler? And if the user has a threaded Perl | installed, the command listed in UPDATING won't work. Because for instance, if you have a 4.x, the perl dependency is not registered when USE_PERL5 is set. there are many other odd cases. -- Mathieu Arnold --==========49268BD752F1318E9C11========== Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (MingW32) iQEVAwUBQL2tK1vROjYJ63c1AQJ5SQf/cKLNtI/pnhhTg66DvMO9ZAsMfvUlHQlJ 7JOQfPYpD7yeZcZusqgr6vcRTMJSO3V7UgSYyW920HptYRRi4ZkCThD6HXEY5rio HNWYAFFJHFAR1MwtB2ld7PkynNZ559nZrKOQVFFtFuj4LzaAIozHEEJ51ur4YPex FZXOd8pYcVMr9/1Tc/uzl2/5hPRCanYdW8F6Pf1YU8vYZ7yTj1CWiy2mpiX0hMCQ ld3KGYzs6vPepXPYVpUX90PExZ3XYIGJ85kKp3DIBKAF9t1uq6CJO9rygg24rdMq ZnnJCSLQGLN1GJKxY4TL5yIOaGH8sYWBd7f2eoZENfvkkPe5zMihiw== =8HsK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==========49268BD752F1318E9C11==========--
