 Today, 8 Sept, I installed macports version 1.6.0 on my 10.5.4 Leopard
 Server system.  I then tried to install wireshark but I get an error that
 it can't install perl5.8 so I tried "sudo port install perl5.8" and I get
 an error also.  I then installed perl5.10 successfully but wireshark
 doesn't recognize it and still tries to install the 5.8 version.
 selfupdate shows I'm on the current db.

 Actually I believe gtk2 requires perl5.8 and it's breaking trying to get
 5.8.
