I just tried that and it gives me a port: command not found, is there something else I need to do first?

An alternative would be to just delete any of the following files if they exist:

  /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.20/Spiffy.pm
  /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.20/Spiffy.pod
  /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.20/Spiffy/mixin.pm
/opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.20/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/Spiffy/.packlist
  /opt/local/share/perl5.20/man/man3/Spiffy.3pm

Dear admins,

Currently a number of perl ports are failing to build on buildports-lion-x86_64 due to the following activation error regarding port p5.20-spiffy.

Error: org.macports.activate for port p5.20-spiffy returned: Image error: /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.20/Spiffy.pm already exists and does not belong to a registered port. Unable to activate port p5.20-spiffy. Use 'port -f activate p5.20-spiffy' to force the activation.
As the error message says the offending files can be removed using the following commands (preferably during a period when the buildbot is idle):

sudo port -f activate p5.20-spiffy
sudo port deactivate p5.20-spiffy

The offending files will be moved aside with a unique suffix and can be deleted after the successful completion of these commands.

Thanks in advance for your help
