If only it were so easy. I installed 5.14.1 by choice (it was
the latest at that time), but the others got installed because
some port or the other was tied to a different version, and
once a port uses a particular version as a dependency, it
installs it even if a later one is available.
What I don't understand is why I have more than one "active."
Actually, I don't even understand the implication of that.
perl of late has been non-binary compatible with earlier
versions hence all your XS, etc compiled with say, GCC need
re-compiling to work.
The simple difference between active & inactive is that the
active port is just that & the inactive port is the old port no
longer being used or required. Check the MacPorts user guide at
their site for the full details of how to clean out inactive
ports. It’s really simple.

Phil.
