Re: curious if anyone noticed the perl-5.8.0_04 seems a bit whacky ?

If you mean perl-5.8.0_4, I don't have this problem on my machine: [stijn@pcwin002] ~ ls -ld /usr/local/scripts ls: /usr/local/scripts: No such file or directory [stijn@pcwin002] ~ ls -l /usr/local/bin/h2ph -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 23071 Jan 6 10:41 /usr/local/bin/h2ph [stijn@pcwin002] ~ ls -l /var/db/pkg | grep perl drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jan 6 10:42 perl-5.8.0_4 Something must be wrong with your setup. I recommend cleaning the whole /usr/local/scripts mess out, pkg_delete perl-5.8.0_4, doing a 'make clean' inside lang/perl5.8 and then reinstalling it. --Stijn -- Coca-Cola is solely responsible for ensuring that people - too stupid to know not to tip half-ton machines on themselves - are safe.

In the perl-5.8.0 Configure script - guess what it does? It actually looks for /usr/local/scripts as a possible location to install stuff. There is a case statement where it is looking for location to put publicly executable scripts. I put /usr/local/scripts as a location for my stuff a while back. I guess I'll change the name to something else. But this does mean that the FreeBSD for perl-5.8.0 port doesn't handle this well - I think. Assuming Perl does install stuff in a location other the /usr/local/bin, the FreeBSD port of perl doesn't record it correctly in the pkgdb. It always assumes /usr/local/bin. -- . ..- -. .. -..- .-. ..- .-.. . ... .-- .. -. -... .-.. --- .-- ... -.. .-. --- --- .-.. ...
