Hi,
Is there e reason why in ports/UPDATING is this mentioned:
,----[ 20110517 ]
| 0) Fix pkgdb.db (for safety): pkgdb -Ff
| 1) Reinstall new version of Perl (5.14): env DISABLE_CONFLICTS=1 portupgrade ...
| 2) Reinstall everything that depends on Perl: ...
`----
and not this:
,----[ man perl-after-upgrade ]
| The standard procedure after a perl port (lang/perl5.X) upgrade is to
| basically reinstall all other packages that depend on perl. This is
| always a painful exercise. The perl-after-upgrade utility makes this
| process mostly unnecessary.
