Okay, so maybe I have a different issue going on here... I have a port installed as perl5.16 that is working fine with the apache2 port.
apache2 is dependent on perl5 and when I try to upgrade apache2, it re-installs perl5.12 which I don't want. So is perl5 an alias to the perl5.12 port and if so, how do I change it?
