This action will +also put some variables into your /etc/make.conf file, so that newly +installed ports (not packages!) will use new version of perl, and the +system upgrades from the source will not overwrite the changes made. + +Note that use.perl port is specific to a given perl installation. If +you later upgrade the perl port, run use.perl port again to update the +symbolic links and /etc/make.conf. + +At any time you can also type + + use.perl system + +if you wish to revert back to the system version of perl. |
