problem with /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8

[Odhiambo Washington]

Hello,

I could do with some help from the more experienced people in this list.

I am trying to install perl-5.8.4 on a 4.10-STABLE box, but the build
always fails with MIME::Base64.

I have even manually updated MIME::Base64 using the port, but still no
luck. I have done all I can think of and now I believe I am at my "etc"
on this one.

Here is the error:
