Comment (by narf_tm at macports.org):
I can't understand why the dependancy should be removed. It IS a
dependancy. The Portfile doesn't have some_dependancies or
most_dependancies. I have been complaining about how MacPorts' Perl has
handled installing modules for years. Instead of fixing the real problem
we are coming up with every way we can think of to get around it. Like
removing dependancies that aren't REALLY need just because nobody will fix
the actual Perl install. And then there is my favorite solution... Let's
have modules replace core modules buy requiring force. Please read my
reply to #12710. I really think it is time to fix the real problem.
