I updated the perl5.8 to perl5.16, so that you can hit snooze on fixing them to perl5. Deleted some old ports while doing so: rpm50, rpm51, yum-arch, poldek, apt-rpm Also upgraded python2.5 to python2.7 (already upgraded from python2.4 to python2.7) including the dependencies since python modules aren't "link" compatible either --anders _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
