I believe that by our conventions it should be" PORTNAME= p5-CIF-Client it's much easier to deal with perl version updates when you can just 'portmanager p5-'. Currently I use about 100 perl ports and only two fail to follow this convention and they are top-level apps that happen to be written in perl (net-snmp and dvd::rip). -- R.
