Can someone help? When I try going into /usr/ports/www/mod_perl and "make install", I get:

I think the problem is that PERL is now at 5.8.5; when trying to portupgrade apache, I had an error to the effect that it couldn't find a perl 5.8.4 binary, and when I symlinked perl.5.8.4 to perl.5.8.5, it installed from ports. But mod_perl refuses. Is his a ports problem??

Can someone confirm this error?

Don't link stuff like perl unless you know what you are doing. Read the usr/ports/UPDATING for info on perl. To make things easy on you what version of perl is listed in you /etc/make.conf, is it 5.8.4? You then want to install the new port of perl and then type $use.perl port in the work dir(I think) to tell bsd you have 5.8.5. Check make.conf to see if it is updated, it wasn't for me so I changed it by hand. $perl -v should id itself as the right version. You must also rebuild every port that depends on perl. There is a 3 line portupgrade command in UPDATING that I could not get to work so I upgraded them all. That takes a while with over 200 ports.

Goodluck.
