>Description:

The makefile for devel/p5-File-Spec says:
.if ${PERL_LEVEL} > 500600
IGNORE=         This port is for perl 5.6.0 and under only.
.endif

The makefile for www/p5-WWW-Search says:
.if ${PERL_LEVEL} < 500800
BUILD_DEPENDS+= ${SITE_PERL}/File/Spec.pm:${PORTSDIR}/devel/p5-File-Spec \
                ${LOCALBASE}/lib/perl5/site_perl/${PERL_VER}/Test/More.pm:${PORTSDIR}/devel/p5-Test-Simple
.endif

I don't know who to believe, it's either p5-File-Spec which is too
picky and should allow 5.6.1 to install p5-File-Spec too or
p5-WWW-Search which is not strict enough and should check for 5.6.0
and lower.

Any suggestions?

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:

I would go for the change in www/p5-WWW-Search but am not sure about it.
