Me too. I also wouldn't have a problem with individual ports like help2man moving to newer perl versions like 5.20. I don't feel that we need to wait and try to do every single port at once, as that's likely to either not happen because of the amount of work involved or to introduce problems because of insufficient testing. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
