Description
I get the following error:
---> Activating p5-getopt-long 2.37_0 Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Getopt/Long.pm is being used by the active perl5.8 port. Please deactivate this port first, or use the -f flag to force the activation.
With 2.36_0, this file was installed here: /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/Getopt/Long.pm

The -f workaround is a hack that breaks things when perl5.8 needs to be reactivated (for any reason).

As long has we don't agree to either add extra informations to portfiles, or patch the defaul perl @INC path, I'll not fix that.

It's a bit harsh *closing* this issue, isn't it? It really is a blocker for a lot of MacPorts users. Leave it open until a solution emerges.

I could install the port (but currently it isn't needed, in particular because perl5.8 has the same version).
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
As it's said in the post-install stage, install it with the force option.
