You should actually declare dependencies on the specific other modules that you use, not libwww-perl itself anymore.


$ port notes p5-libwww-perl
p5-libwww-perl has the following notes:
  As of version 6.00, libwww-perl has been broken up into multiple
  packages. If you were using p5-libwww-perl for just one or two of its
  modules before, you may be able to pare down your installation to just
  those modules now. Other important changes have been made that may
  affect your code; for details, please see:
