Unable to install perl from ports

I was thinking about that. Previously I have Perl compiled with THREADS enabled and now disabled option as some port complained about that. Will keep in mind.

Nice find, @cpu82, I would have never thought to look at that.

I was looking for similar errors on the mailing lists, and the search paid off ;)

IMHO this kind of problems have allowed that pormaster(8) be enshrined as a good tool to manage ports. It's mostly personal choice.

I installed a fresh 9.1-RELEASE. I have no problem to install Perl 5.18. But on my old machine, it has a 9.1-STABLE kernel, I had perl5.16 installed. When I tried to install perl5.18. It always complains about a conflict with 5.16 no matter how many times I did make deinstall of Perl 5.16.

I recompiled the kernel and rebuilt the world. I deleted all 5.14 and 5.6. Now it is 9.2-RELEASE. Now I am installing perl5.18. It's done. No complaint!
