#16252: ghc does not let me user perl5.10 -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: lee@laylward.com | Owner: gwright@macports.org Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Enhancements Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: ghc perl -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Changes (by blb@macports.org): * owner: macports-tickets@lists.macosforge.org => gwright@macports.org * type: defect => enhancement * milestone: => Port Enhancements Comment: Assigning to maintainer. Any port which uses the perl port group (which should be the vast majority of p5-* ports) will use an already-installed perl5.10 if available, but ghc specifically depends on perl5.8. ghc could be updated to work like the perl modules by changing the perl dependency to: {{{ depends_run path:${prefix}/bin/perl:perl5.8 }}} Assuming it would work okay with 5.10 -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16252#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
