I’m trying to upgrade perl-related ports from perl 5.24 to perl 5.26.
When I executed...
sudo port install p5.26-libapreq2
...I got message...
The following dependencies will be installed:
mod_perl2
p5.26-extutils-xsbuilder
…and I proceeded. Got messages:
Error: Failed to activate mod_perl2: Image error:
/opt/local/lib/apache2/modules/mod_perl.so already exists and does not belong
to a registered
port. Unable to activate port mod_perl2. Use 'port -f activate mod_perl2' to
force the activation.
Proceeded, I tried:
sudo port -f activate mod_perl2
Got message:
The following versions of mod_perl2 are currently installed:
1) mod_perl2 @2.0.10_0+perl5_24
2) mod_perl2 @2.0.10_1+perl5_24
GotBut I didn’t want the+perl5_24 variant of mod_perl2 now, since the idea is
to upgrade to perl 5.26.
So I aborted.
Next, tried...
sudo port uninstall mod_perl2 @2.0.10_0+perl5_24
…with resulting message steps:
Note: It is not recommended to uninstall/deactivate a port that has
dependents as it breaks the dependents.
The following ports will break: p5.24-libapreq2 @2.130.0_5
Continue? [y/N]: y
Warning: Uninstall forced. Proceeding despite dependencies.
---> Uninstalling mod_perl2 @2.0.10_0+perl5_24
---> Cleaning mod_perl2
Now I tried again...
sudo port install p5.26-libapreq2
… with result:
---> Computing dependencies for p5.26-libapreq2
The following dependencies will be installed:
mod_perl2
p5.26-extutils-xsbuilder
Continue? [Y/n]: y

How do I proceed??
Here’s what the end of the … mod_perl2/main.log :
