Hello, I need a little help.
File::ReadBackwards
If I start with this one, I can probably get the other 15 to work.
If I look at another p5 module, as a way to learn:
# $Id: Portfile 30247 2007-10-23 02:05:08Z redacted at macports.org $
PortSystem 1.0
PortGroup perl5 1.0
perl5.setup Pod-Escapes 1.04
maintainers nomaintainer
description for resolving Pod E<...> sequences
long_description This module provides things that are useful in \
decoding Pod E<...>
sequences. Presumably, it should \
be used only by Pod parsers
and/or formatters.
checksums md5 00ea2e0d2e84ed98517a4616708b68d3
platforms darwin
So there is not a heck of a lot in there.
I did my best to get past these instructions:
http://guide.macports.org/#development.local-repositories
I have /Users/me/macports/
My sources file looks like this:
file:///Users/me/macports
rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/ports/ [default]
While I did do some tests, I am confused as to naming. If I want to
make a port for File::ReadBackward, what is my path to /Users/me/
macports ?
I think it will be /Users/macports/ports/p5(maybe)/file-readbackwards
Given the above example port file, where is it being told to
download? I can not seem to locate a file, so I must be
misunderstanding this `sudo find /opt/ -name "perl5.setup"`
