#12989: port -f upgrade considered harmful --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: stephen@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: MacPorts Future Component: base | Version: 1.5.0 Keywords: | Port: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by stephen@…): Replying to [comment:5 jmr@…]:

Any reason this shouldn't be duped to #12710?

It's a different issue from my point of view. I do not understand why the perl port needs to be uninstalled and reinstalled, then the p5-pathtools that at long last got activated itself has to be uninstalled and reinstalled. Note that I now have (at least) FOUR copies of /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/darwin-2level/auto/Cwd/Cwd.bs! -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/12989#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
