Comment (by mojca@…):

 This is one of the rare maintained ports, so let's give the maintainer a
 few days.

 I wouldn't try updating either. The main website is gone, some website
 providing software with the same name exists (hopefully the same software;
 website has broken links to bug tracker), but while MacPorts ships version
 3.6, that version cannot be found on that website at all, the latest
 version is 4.1a (presumably meaning alpha) from 2004 and all copyrights
 list 2003.

 If the functionality has been broken at least since the removal of
 perl5.12 (the switch to perl5.16), then apparently nobody missed the
 software in the meantime anyway.

 I still hope that maintainer responds though.

 (See also #50213.)
