I'm running Macports Perl v5.10.1. I do not have a 5.8 variant
installed (other than Apple's). When I ran an update this morning
Macports tries to install 5.8.9_3, which of course, fails to install/
activate. I'm not certain what is dependent upon 5.8.9 but would
rather see everything bumped to 5.10. Suggestions?
