Hi.
There is PR: http://bugs.freebsd.org/163687
It tries to fix port building when user built it's perl installation
with USE_PERL option (creating symlinks in /usr/bin) set to off (not the
default). Patch in PR just replaces static shebang with ${PERL} variable
from Mk/bsd.perl.mk. But it doesn't actually fix the build, because
consequent call of aclocal-1.11 will fail since it's shebang set to
'/usr/bin/perl' too.
The question is how to properly handle this PR:
1. Fix devel/automake too (by replacing /usr/bin/perl with ${PERL})
2. Create symlinks unconditionally in perl port and drop USE_PERL option
3. Close PR as invalid since the build fails because of user
intervention (changing the value of default option)
Thanks.
As for me, i believe second option is more preferable, but i don't know
if there something behind this.
PS. I think patch attached (for bsd.perl.mk) should be considered since
we no more have perl in base. And i'd also exclude perl-5.6.* from
CONFLICTS in lang/perl*, because it's something so ancient and doubtful
to face with.
