-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've been submitting a number of ports recently, mostly Perl-based ones. Sometimes they don't work on old Perls (and Kris Kennaway has always been there to inform me; shame that I couldn't respond before Simon Barner did this morning). At the moment I don't have a 4.x machine configured to run the six or seven year old 5.005_03 release that's in the 4.x base system. This means that I can't (easily; switching the 4.x box to use 5.005_03 is a mess and I've broken my installation that way) test my ports before submitting them for systems running this ancient (but still supported) version of Perl. I've been considering installing RELENG_4 inside of a jail on my 5.x machine (the 4.x machine is too starved for resources now as it is, I don't want to make its life any harder), but I'm not sure how well that would work. Has anyone had any experiences with this? Any caveats? Can I simply replicate the instructions in jail(8) but with RELENG_4 bits? Thanks in advance.
