Hi Jeremy,
yes, we (portmgr) noticed this too. But we don't know why it happens,
yet.
I'm 99% sure its because lang/perl5.10 is built after lang/perl5.8 and
the latter sets NO_LATEST_LINK=yes.
1) lang/perl5.10 should set latest link to perl5.10
2) it should not set no latest link
3) lang/perl5.8 should set latest link to perl5.8
Peter Losher poked me about this a few days ago at EuroBSDCon and I
looked into it, but didn't find the cause yet. It's on my TODO list for
when I get home. Your analysis is unfortunately not right, as it's not
just perl but from what I can tell all latest links, so something bad is
definately going on.
Well that might be the 'current' case, but lang/perl5.10's latest link
has not been present for 6+ months.
I'd be fine if lang/perl5.8 didn't override LATEST_LINK. I still think
1 and 2 are correct changes regardless of the underlying issue.
