perl5+perl5_12 collides with p5-digest-sha on /opt/local/bin/shasum

$ sudo port activate perl5 @5.12.3_0+perl5_12

The problem is that Digest::SHA is a core module since perl 5.9.3. Previously it was only provided by the port p5-digest-sha but now it is provided by perl5.10/perl5.12 port. This is related to p5-module-build problems reported in #24025.

$ corelist Digest::SHA

Digest::SHA was first released with perl v5.9.3

Note: I believe that installing the port file p5-module-signature under perl 5.12 (and perl 5.10) will also fail due to the p5-digest-sha requirement.

I have a similar error from upgrading the outdated packages. This is from /opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_lang_perl5/main.log:
