AFAICT there is no FreeBSD port for CPAN distribution App-Ack, including
the ack command-line utility.
I have lately been getting my feet wet with BSD ports (both FreeBSD and
OpenBSD) and am willing to create such a port.
However, I sense that a new version of ack is soon to appear. So I
wonder whether I should port version 2 or wait for version 3?
As a freeBSD user, I don't use the port for ack. I simply download the
single file and put it in my ~/bin directory.
You could do that and report any errors you have when using ack on
freeBSD, that way when it's out of beta, we'll know it works well in the
port/package.

Thank you very much.
