#49940: obsolete perls: remove perl5.8 perl5.10 perl5.12 perl5.14 from repository,
update p5-graveyard
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: devans@… | Owner: devans@…
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: Normal | Milestone:
Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4
Keywords: | Port: perl5.8 perl5.10 perl5.12 perl5.14
| p5-graveyard
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
At this point in time, perl5.14 and earlier versions can be considered
obsolete and can be removed
* perl module support for these versions has already been removed
(r130129 2014-12-27)
* no other ports depend on them
* no other ports have perl variants that refer to them
Unless someone can come up with a good reason not to do so, I propose to
remove these ports at years end and add them to the mausoleum section of
p5-graveyard declaring them obsolete, replaced by perl5.16 (the current
default perl).
See attached patch for proposed modifications to p5-graveyard
