What about perl-after-upgrade instead of step 3? I havent done this
perl upgrade yet, but normally this is enough.
I did this:
find /var/db/pkg -name "+CONTENTS" | xargs grep --files-with-match
"lib/perl5.*5.8.9" | awk -F/ '{print $5}'
then this:
for f in `find /usr/local/bin /usr/local/lib /usr/local/libexec
/usr/local/sbin -type f`; do ldd $f 2>/dev/null | grep -q libperl &&
pkg_which $f; done
and portupgraded only named ports. No problems so far.
This worked great for me. Thanks for the tip.
