Are you aware that 5.x and 6.x releases don't have perl in the base
system, and that 4-stable is no longer officially supported.

So at times I run portmanager on many of my servers but I want to
make sure that the perl installed is the port and not the system
version.

The only option I new about was to IGNORE building it.

# grep perl /usr/local/etc/portmanager/pm-020.conf
IGNORE|lang/perl*|

But I am wondering if there are proper settings that I can put in
placed to make sure that if perl is reinstalled that the port version
is the chosen version.


I am not sure if this is what you are looking for.

Syntax is:

Usage:
  ./use.perl port   -> /usr/bin/perl is the perl5 port
  ./use.perl system -> /usr/bin/perl is the system perl






not exactly what i am looking for.  I am trying to get portmanager to 
auto-invoke the ./use.perl port after it reinstalls perl.


cheers,

Noah
