 I'm trying to install p5-locale-gettext, and I keep getting:

 I've tried:
 sudo port clean p5-locale-gettext (made no difference)
 sudo port -n upgrade --force perl5.8 perl5 (made no difference)

 port installed perl5.8 perl5
 gives:
 {{{
 The following ports are currently installed:

   perl5.8 @5.8.9_4+universal (active)
 }}}

 which perl
 gives:
 {{{

 }}}

 perl --version
 gives:

 The log output for the error is:

 I don't know what much of this is about, I've just followed other people's
 suggestions on forums... can anyone enlighten me?
