Data::FormValidator's main aim is to make the tedious coding of input
validation expressible in a simple format and to let the programmer focus
on more interesting tasks.
When you are coding a web application one of the most tedious though
crucial tasks is to validate user's input (usually submitted by way of
an HTML form). You have to check that each required fields is present
and that some fields have valid data. (Does the phone input looks like a
phone number? Is that a plausible email address? Is the YY state
valid? etc.) For a simple form, this is not really a problem but as
forms get more complex and you code more of them this task becames
really boring and tedious.
Data::FormValidator lets you define profiles which declare the
required fields and their format. When you are ready to validate the
user's input, you tell Data::FormValidator the profile to apply to the
user data and you get the valid fields, the name of the fields which
are missing. An array is returned listing which fields are valid,
missing, invalid and unknown in this profile.

Move more WWW entries from pkg-descr files into Makefiles
The WWW: lines in the pkg-descr files of these ports where not at the

Fix a few Perl ports with Perl 5.28.
Starting at ExtUtils::MakeMaker 7.31_06 and Perl 5.27.1, the base
README.pod is no longer installed. So stop installing them altogether.

Clean up the rest of the perl@ Makefiles a bit.
- Remove dependencies on modules distributed as part of perl core
- Remove references to FreeBSD < 8 and perl < 5.16
- Ensure that DOCS and EXAMPLES options exist for ports installing
PORTDOCS or PORTEXAMPLES
- Reduce unnecessary inclusions of bsd.port.options.mk by using
OPTIONS helpers and the like
- Fix some cases where dependencies were only assigned to BUILD_DEPENDS
- Fix a few of the cases where dependencies were only assigned to RUN_DEPENDS.
This one happens in many, many ports. I only applied it in cases where
it interfered with 'make test' but it should maybe be done more generally.
- Mute ${MKDIR} in installation
- Parethesize compound commands
- In www/p5-URI-Fetch, remove the ZLIB option that wasn't used
Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the

Welcome bsd.perl.mk. Add support for constructs such as USE_PERL5=5.8.0+.
Drop support for antique perl.

Let the IGNORE message make a bit more sense and change it from:

lang/perl5 then try again.

to /dist/Foo/ (note trailing slash). After a 2002(!) reorganization,
this is the preferred way to refer to modules on search.cpan.org.

Forced commit to note that I've verified the distinfo. Although the
major version jumps by 2, there were only 6 months' worth of changes;
however, in that time, a significant re-architecting was done. See
the Changes file for the extensive details.
