Comment (by mojca@…):

 Perfect. I wasn't aware of existence of `py-graveyard`. Yes, I totally
 agree to keep the code of `p5-graveyard` and `py-graveyard` as close to
 each other as possible. The code I attached was basically the same idea,
 only a different implementation.

 The only change I would suggest to make is to leave out the individual
 numbers of perl versions that need a replacement. First of all it will be
 very difficult to figure out which versions need a replacement (we would
 need to go through history of every Portfile and figure out which subports
 have been replaced). And also: almost every port included support for all
 perl versions, so we don't gain almost anything by trying not to include
 some previously non-existing ports.

 So my suggestion would be to iterate through 5.8-5.14 for every single
 subport. There's no need to make any extra effort to try to exclude some
 versions. After a year we can remove 5.8-5.14 and maybe introduce the
 replacement 5.16, 5.18 ->5.22 by then.

 What's the best way to list all Perl (sub)ports together with their
 current version?
