There's one fairly significant oversight with respect to doing this with perl. Modules. Having multiple instances of the same version of perl5 that are built with different @INC is a complete mess. At the very least, port should configure itself to (or ask if it should) use the same configuration

Newbie - Keeping a macport installation clean

2008-12-28 Thread Thomas Gommes
Hi Everyone, after a couple of year using Gentoo Linux, I moved to Mac OS and was very happy to discover Macport. I have been playing around with it since a couple of days, installing and removing quite some stuff. I was now wondering if there was a way to keep the macport installation clean.

I fully understand the design decision. My point is that the decision is flawed because it's too inflexible. Macports should be more versatile with respect to perl because perl modules aren't generally treated the same as binary libraries (i.e. the FAQ link you referenced isn't completely
