@- Remove conditional checks for FreeBSD 5.x and older
@
text
@Installation of Perl distribution is finished.  Please note, that since
Perl is also in the base system, this distribution will not be used by
default.

If you want this version of Perl to be used by default, please type

  use.perl port

Assuming that use.perl script (which was installed with the rest of the
Perl distribution) can be found in your PATH (you might have to type
`rehash' first, depending upon a shell you use), this action will
replace /usr/bin/perl and /usr/bin/suidperl with symbolic links to the
versions of these binaries in the Perl distribution.  This action will
also put some variables into your /etc/make.conf file, so that newly
installed ports (not packages!) will use new version of perl, and the
system upgrades from the source will not overwrite the changes made.

Note that use.perl port is specific to a given perl installation.  If
you later upgrade the perl port, run use.perl port again to update the
symbolic links and /etc/make.conf.

At any time you can also type

  use.perl system

if you wish to revert back to the system version of perl.

@Update to 5.8.6.  Also:

- redirect output from h2ph to /dev/null [1];
- fix File::Path insecure file/directory permissions [2];
  this resolves CAN-2004-0452
  (http://vuxml.freebsd.org/c418d472-6bd1-11d9-93ca-000a95bc6fae.html);
- for OSVERSION < 500036, create symlinks in /usr/bin not only for
  perl and suidperl, but also for a2p, c2ph, find2perl, h2ph, h2xs,
  perlbug, perlcc, perldoc, pl2pm, pod2html, pod2latex, pod2man,
  pod2text, s2p, and splain;  perl and suidperl are still enough for
  more recent FreeBSD versions [3];
- clean up created symlinks upon deinstallation [4];
- try to cleanup symlinks created by older versions of lang/perl5 and
  lang/perl5.8, during both installation and deinstallation [5];
- added support for DISABLE_BSDPAN environment variable [6];
- be explicit about use.perl usage after installation of 4.X systems
  [7];
- respect __MAKE_CONF partially (the build-time value is used) [8];
- fix threaded build - respect PTHREAD_CFLAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS [9].
- use.perl is now the same as pkg-install is now the same as
  pkg-deinstall;  apart from the changes already mentioned above, this
  is a shell script now;
- use.perl's logic is also simplified in several ways [10];
- fix a BSDPAN bug [11].

Outstanding issues: Module::Build support for BSDPAN, SU_CMD support (PR
70831), PR 64963 (partially), and anything else that I forgot.

@Unforbid the port for the use of general FreeBSD public.

Compile perl with BSDPAN support, both -current and -stable.  The
version of BSDPAN used here coincides accidentally with the one present
in the -current system perl, but is installed in a different place.

Provide a script, use.perl, to facilitate switching of the perl used by
default between the system perl and this port.  Also print a message
describing the usage of use.perl (this works for the port and for the
package built from it).  The switching to the port version is done by
removing /usr/bin/perl and /usr/bin/suidperl (they both have link count
>1, so this is reversible), and making them to be symlinks to the
corresponding binaries in $PREFIX/bin.  Also, assignments of the correct
values of PERL_VER, PERL_VERSION, and PERL_ARCH are appended to
/etc/make.conf.  Last, NOPERL=yes is appended to /etc/make.conf, so that
the changes made will survive system upgrades from source.  The
switching to the system version is more or less a reverse of the process
described above.

Set and use PERL_ARCH which is independed from the one used by the
system perl.

Fix the port for post-malloc.h -current.

Fix a small bogon when PREFIX was used in pkg-install (PKG_PREFIX should
have been used instead).
