30638,perl5 portgroup: resolve version ambiguity with subports,jmr@…,macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org,"Currently, perl modules are built against whatever version of perl happens to be linked to ${prefix}/bin/perl. This causes much confusion and is incompatible with prebuilt binaries.

Attached is a proposed change. It takes a similar approach to the new unified python portgroup, creating several p5.X-foo ports from each p5-foo portfile. This way, p5.X-foo is known to be built against perl5.X. The p5-foo port itself becomes a metaport that pulls in one of the specific versions.",enhancement,closed,Normal,,ports,,fixed,,ricci@…,
