Greetings, I have some old code I'm trying to get running again. It uses the Perl module HTML::TreeBuilder (aka www/p5-HTML-Tree).
I did the following: # pkg install p5-HTML-Tree which completed with no problems, but now it appears that my installed version of HTML::TreeBuilder craps out at: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/HTML/TreeBuilder.pm line 59. Looking at that source line, I see the following: use HTML::Entities (); I have looked in my ports tree to see if an appropriate port/pkg might be available to satisfy this dependency, but all I am finding is these things, none of which appear to fit the bill: textproc/p5-HTML-Entities-ImodePictogram textproc/p5-HTML-Entities-Interpolate textproc/p5-HTML-Entities-Numbered textproc/p5-HTML-HTML5-Entities textproc/p5-MathML-Entities textproc/p5-XML-DoubleEncodedEntities textproc/p5-XML-Entities Shouldn't the installation of a particular pre-built package such as the p5-HTML-Tree force all of its dependencies to also be automagically installed? How do I fix this problem? The descr file associated with the textproc/p5-HTML-HTML5-Entities package says: HTML::HTML5::Entities is a pure Perl, drop-in replacement for HTML::Entities, providing the character entities defined in HTML5. So should I just install that and then manually exit the source line quoted above so that it says instead: use HTML::HTML5::Entities (); ? _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
