Hi,
Wondering why nobody does report it yet.
I noticed a couple weeks ago, an confirmed today on another computer, that :
portupgrade -o lang/perl5.20 lang/perl5.18
removes the symlink in /usr/bin, and doesn't recreate it, thus broking
all perl scripts and programs.
In fact, this line :
/bin/ln -sf "${PKG_PREFIX}/bin/perl${PERL_VERSION}" "/usr/bin/${binary}"
in function do_create_links() thas was in
lang/perl5.18/files/use.perl.in is missing in 5.20 port. All links
handling has been removed from use.perl.in, and the knob in make config too.
[root@aragorn perl5.20]# diff files/use.perl.in
