A question about PERL PORTS

[Gilbert C Healton]

Yes, but I am being asked to deliver the CPAN modules as BSD ports.
so our local packages can use @pkgdep to pull in the perl packages
as needed (a big issue for field upgrades of older products).
The CPAN/Perl modules use @conflicts, @pkgdep,  etc.  As with all
other BSD ports.
