Hi, Is there e reason why in ports/UPDATING is this mentioned: ,----[ 20110517 ] | 0) Fix pkgdb.db (for safety): pkgdb -Ff | 1) Reinstall new version of Perl (5.14): env DISABLE_CONFLICTS=1 portupgrade ... | 2) Reinstall everything that depends on Perl: ... `---- and not this: ,----[ man perl-after-upgrade ] | The standard procedure after a perl port (lang/perl5.X) upgrade is to | basically reinstall all other packages that depend on perl. This is | always a painful exercise. The perl-after-upgrade utility makes this | process mostly unnecessary. `---- Heino
