  Affects: users of lang/perl5.12

  Author: skv@FreeBSD.org

  Reason: 
    lang/perl5.12 has been updated to 5.12.4.  You should update everything
    that depends on perl.  The easiest way to do that is to use
    "perl-after-upgrade" script supplied with lang/perl5.12.
    Please see its manual page for details.
  
    If you want to switch to lang/perl5.12 from lang/perl5.{8,10} please
    follow instructions in the entry 20100715 in this file.

  Affects: users of lang/perl*

  Author: skv@FreeBSD.org

  Reason: 
    lang/perl5.14 is out. If you want to switch to it from, for example
    lang/perl5.12, that is:
  
    Portupgrade users:
      0) Fix pkgdb.db (for safety):
  	pkgdb -Ff
  
      1) Reinstall new version of Perl (5.14):
  	env DISABLE_CONFLICTS=1 portupgrade -o lang/perl5.14 -f perl-5.12.\*
  
      2) Reinstall everything that depends on Perl:
  	portupgrade -fr perl
  
    Portmaster users:
  	portmaster -o lang/perl5.14 lang/perl5.12
  
  	Conservative:
  	portmaster p5-
  
  	Comprehensive (but perhaps overkill):
  	portmaster -r perl-
  
    Note: If the "perl-" glob matches more than one port you will need to
  	specify the name of the Perl directory in /var/db/pkg explicitly.
