publican porting effort

[Radovan Pútec]

Hello dev,

I would like to port publican[1] to osx, prefferably push it into macports. I've
already started to push perl dependencies into ports, the only problem is that
Publican depends on perl modules that depends on perl core modules in perl >=
5.10. There is a way to force update on core module from ports, but that is 
generaly a bad idea, so the only viable option I see is to use perl >= 5.10.

Since there are three version of perl in ports, is there a way to maintain 
modules for every version? Are there any policies regarding packaging perl 
modules? And why are there tree versions of perl in ports. Because of deps 
usable is only 5.8.9.
