I am telling ASSP where the new perl is, this issue is that some modules, only three of 15 or more, are being looked for in the wrong spot.

I do not know if I should solve this in the port, by editing the source of the app, or if there is some other way. I actually hope there is some other way, as there should be no reason why I need to modify the source other than to change the perl path at the top of a few files.

Hello,
It sounds like opt/local is not the first location the path environment looks for perl. This is a problem when several versions of a program exists because unless a prefix is supplied, the default program will always be found in the order of the pathname (first detected). If perl exists in /opt/local/bin and /usr/bin and the path is in the order of /usr/bin:/opt/local/bin, then without a prefix, /usr/bin will always be the perl used and visa versa if path is /opt/local/bin:/usr/bin. I ran into the same problem with gcc located in two different locations.
