Comment:

 I believe installing "ImageMagick +perl" is preferred now. Please check
 whether that contains everything you need (I don't use Perl myself). If
 so, we should remove "p5-perlmagick".

 I'm sorry you have complaints about MacPorts installing its own Perl, but
 it's always been MacPorts philosophy to install its own versions of
 software and not rely on things provided with the OS. The
 [wiki:FAQ#WhyisMacPortsusingitsownlibraries FAQ] explains why. Discussion
 about this situation should be directed to the
 [http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users macports-
 users] mailing list.
