port command timing

I have no way of testing this empirically any longer. I am on 1.8+ on all machines now. `port info portname`, `port search pattern`, and especially, though seemingly not all the time, `port installed` take a lot longer to run than they used to under 1.7. (Feels that way at least) The one

Invoking tcl

I am trying to do some scripting in tcl for a port file that is a little out of the norm for what is needed in most ports. How do I invoke tcl in a sample script? In bash, I would create a new file, enter the shebang of #!/bin/bash and go at it. I honestly can not find tcl on my system. `

SF.net aggravations

I have no idea if this is SF.net or the maintainer, but keeping up with the way they distribute this software is a pain in the rear. One of the most useful peieves of software burdened by things that simply are not a burden elsewhere. In the end, I think I am going to mirror this file on

Three perl port submissions; p5-io, p5-io-socket-inet6, p5-lwp-attic
