Hi,

I'm sorry, I have seen the two commits you made.

Between Saturday when I uploaded the patch and the time when I
committed there were 41 commits made in dports/perl/. I tried to catch
them, but apparently missed some of them (and made some stupid
mistakes like adding just "revision" and no number in two cases). But
those are still relatively easy to catch and fix now (and mostly
affect just people who actually installed p5.18-foo in the last two
days).

But now I see what I did wrong. Apparently I accidentally started with
an outdated database and missed all the commits from
     http://trac.macports.org/changeset/122858
onwards. Arghhhhhh. I'll get back to it. (It seems to be a list of
roughly 160 ports, probably less.)

I checked the commits between r123560 and r123670 and those seem ok.
Those are the ones added after Saturday.


I'm relatively surprised by the long time it takes to build all those
ports on the buildbot. It will probably take more than one day to
build all of them. Another reason to get rid of support for Perl 5.8
and later ...
