You need to run
# use.perl port
again. What's happening is that your /etc/make.conf file still
contains the PERL_VERSION as 5.8.0, which causes any perl modules to
be installed into a directory outside the usual @INC path. Plus if
fixes up some other locations where the perl version is referenced.
Running perl -e 'print join( "\n", @INC ), "\n";' should return a list
of directories with the version string 5.8.1 in them:
% perl -e 'print join( "\n", @INC ), "\n";'
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/mach
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.1/BSDPAN
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.1/mach
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.1
.
Cheers,
Matthew
