how to install all p5-* one shot

2009-01-26 Thread Saifi Khan
Hi all:

There are many PERL packages in ports whose names are prefixed with p5-* .

How does one install all the p5-* packages one shot ?

Is there a way one can do it with the options available in ports
or does one need to write a script to locate all the dir names
starting with p5-* ?

Any pointer in this direction will be appreciated.

% cd /usr/ports
% find . -name p5\-* | wc -l
3360

Good idea? Then try:

% sudo portmaster -i */p5\-*

I don't think (i am actually sure) that you can not install all the p5-* ports.
A lot of ports conflict with each other. 

So it is better to install the p5-* ports you actually need.
And the good thing about the ports tree is that they will be when installing 
software that require those p5-* ports.

Johan Hendriks
