https://www.freshports.org/devel/autoconf reports that
perl is a dependency:
Build dependencies:
• gm4 : devel/m4
• help2man : misc/help2man
• gmake : devel/gmake
• makeinfo : print/texinfo
• perl5>=5.28.r1<5.29 : lang/perl5.28
Runtime dependencies:
• gm4 : devel/m4
• autoconf-wrapper : devel/autoconf-wrapper
• perl5>=5.28.r1<5.29 : lang/perl5.28
• indexinfo : print/indexinfo
The Makefile has as shown by:
# grep perl /usr/ports/devel/autoconf/Makefile
USES= gmake makeinfo perl5 tar:xz
This suggests that your system may be messed up
by having some indication that some lang/perl5.*
is installed, despite things being missing. That
would be consistent with your report of:
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.30/perl/man/man1/perl.1.gz
existing. /usr/ports/UPDATING reports:
20200803:
AFFECTS: users of lang/perl5*
AUTHOR: m...@freebsd.org
The default Perl version has been switched to Perl 5.32. If you are using
binary packages to upgrade your system, you do not have anything to do, pkg
upgrade will do the right thing. For the other people, follow the
instructions in entry 20161103, it should still be the same.
What does:
pkg info perl5
report?
You may need to cause a delete of messed up material
and then a reinstall if that command reports that
perl5 is installed.
An example output for reference:
# pkg info perl5
