Comment (by e-maryniak):

 By the way, additional info: I am running macOS Big Sur 11.7.10 (higher
 not possible for iMac Retina 5K 27 inch Late 2014).\\
 The current Perl version is 5.36, so not 5.34, could that be the problem
 (**see @INC**)?

 $ perl --version \\
 This is perl 5, version 36, subversion 3 (v5.36.3) built for darwin-
 thread-multi-2level
 $_

 **Ad your suggestion**, this did not work, I'm sorry to report****:

 $ sudo port deactivate p5.34-image-exiftool \\
 Note: It is not recommended to uninstall/deactivate a port that has
 dependents as it breaks the dependents. \\
 The following ports will break: exiftool @12.920.0_0 \\
 Continue? [y/N]: y \\
