I'd agree with Thierry. Ideally, you wouldn't want to even build a piece of software that didn't work right, let alone install it. But once you admit the possibility that mistakes may have been made, and recognize that tests are desirable, then *conceptually* you want to test a port in circumsta

Did you read the thread entitled "Perl upgrade question" in which a method for doing this was discussed, in the past few days? Alternatively, you could run something like: #!/bin/sh for pdir in `pkg_info -aqo` do [ -z `make -C /usr/ports/$pdir -V USE_PERL5 -V USE_PERL5_RUN` ] || \ echo "$pdir" #o
