For 5.8.8 - 5.8.9 then perl-after-upgrade works fine: this is because there is binary compatibility so that .so modules compiled for 5.8.8 will load just fine into 5.8.9. The work of perl-after-upgrade is simply to move files from /usr/local/lib/perl/site_perl/5.8.8 to .../5.8.9 For the upgrade from 5.8.[89] to 5.10.0, there is no binary compatibility so all perl modules that install loadable binaries will have to be recompiled. Rather than trying to produce a long list of what modules are pure perl and what aren't the advice is simply to reinstall everything.

updating perl
Hello, Trying to update my perl port from 5.8.6 to 5.8.7. The updating of perl itself went fine, but all the dependent ports on it like swatch, php, etc. previously referenced modules that were included in 5.8.6, now they're not working. What extra step do i do? Thanks. Dave. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Read /usr/ports/UPDATING: 20050624: AFFECTS: users of lang/perl5.8 AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED] lang/perl5.8 has been updated to 5.8.7. You should update everything depending on perl.

Try contacting the maintainer of the perl ports: % cd /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8 % make -V MAINTAINER It might be more worthwhile to put in a pkg-message, which should be displayed any time anyone installs the port or the pkg built from it.

UPDATING - perl
Hi, Trying to upgrade my perl as mentioned in /usr/ports/UPDATING : 20040204: AFFECTS: 5.2-CURRENT users who started with a 5.2-RELEASE or older. Change the default version of perl to 5.8. 1) Force perl-5.6.1 to be upgraded with perl-5.8. portupgrade -o lang/perl5.8 -f perl-5.6.1_15 2) Update all p5-* modules. portupgrade -f p5-\* And the first step goes fine, but when I do the second step it seems to want to go back to loading/installing perl 5.6.1 . I CTRL-C'd it before it got too far. Is it ok to allow it to continue? Is there a step that should be changed/added?

You want to use it to build the p5-* and other ports that depend on perl. You also see links in /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin that use.perl port creates.
