It might be a system utility though I guess, not really sure what a great category for it would be. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37823#comment:1> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

* Probably the word "perl" should appear in the description or long_description to help people find this port. Changed. * Instead of using ${workpath}/${name} everywhere you should set worksrcdir ${name} and then use ${worksrcpath} everywhere. Yeah larryv taught me that one in irc for the mpvim portfile... hadn't gotten around to changing it in the rest of my submissions yet though, but I have now. * "categories textproc sysutils" doesn't seem right... cpan2port doesn't really process text... It might be a system utility though I guess, not really sure what a great category for it would be. So I just discovered there's a [http://www.macports.org/ports.php?by=category&substr=macports macports category]... it's only used as a secondary category for stuff though. Anyway changed to "sysutils macports"

I'd recommend cc-ing him on this ticket, and, if he wants, adding him as a maintainer to this port, too. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37823#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

I do not know enough perl to maintain cpan2port. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37823#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

This would just be the portfile for it, you wouldn't have to know any more perl for that than you would for any of the portfiles you've been generating recently with it. Heck I don't even know any perl myself and I was still able to throw together this portfile. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37823#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
