You should get into the habit of checking this file for changes each time
you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades.

+
+ 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.
