 Replying to [comment:13 rjvbertin@…]:
 > Not that I can commit it anyway, but I had a look at my `port:cpuid`.
 Turns out it depends on `port:p${perl5.major}-foo` ; am I right that this
 means it'll transition as soon as the `perl5.major` variable changes?

 that's a bad idea - think about the binary archives or the fact that a
 person's installed files will be different with the same version/revision
 of a Portfile.

 > If not, I'll just make it depend on the p5-foo variants of its 2
 dependencies.

 That's a bad idea for similar reasons as well.

 Please follow the standard recommendations for depending on perl/perl
 modules and discuss improvements in the ticket mentioned earlier in thread
 (#50000).
