I think it’s an artifact of the cpan2port module which adds the dependencies as 
p5-* without any if {${perl5.major} != "”}  block. Usually people have just 
added that line without indenting the dependencies. We always indent the python 
ports which have similar logic. I think the code looks better indented. But I 
will stay with the consensus on this (of course).
