Comment (by bruce.miller@…):
Unfortunately, I couldn't rouse any guinea pigs on my end of things.
To try to get unwedged, I went looking for other likely ports of perl
modules that have executables; the first one I looked at perl-Perl-Critic
seemingly uses the same strategy to avoid committing to a particular
version of perl. Other than not having variants for TeX installations,
the only significant differences I notice in that Portfile from the one I
originally propsed are that
* it omits perl5.link_binary_suffix
* it adds perl5.use_module_build just after depends_lib-append
I would ''assume'' that use_module_build is used to assert that the Perl
Makfile.PL uses the Module::Build mechanism instead of the old-style
ExtUtils::MakeMaker. I'm not sure what the link_binary_suffix was for; I
must have copied it from somewhere(?)
So, I wonder, does perl-Perl-Critic actually install under different perl
version?
