Is this where you mean?
/opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/perl

$ls -la | grep read
drwxr-xr-x    3 root  admin    102 Jan 19 03:22 p5-patchreader

drwxr-xr-x    3 root  admin    102 Jan 19 03:22 p5-term-readline-gnu

If I uninstall p5-file-readbackwards and then do my search, nothing  
for readbackward shows up in a new search, or a list installed.
