Description dphi 1998-02-13 17:50:01 UTC 
When moving to perl 5.00404 from 5.00401 the creation of the
h2ph files are not put in the @INC dir. for perl to access

Fix: 

cp -R /usr/share/perl  /usr/local/lib/perl5

I would rather add the /usr/share/perl to the @INC but That
seems to be beyond me. (@INC is created during install)
How-To-Repeat: run a program that uses a very specfic *.ph 
A very simple perl only httpd from the learning perl5 course/book

VERY bad idea. /usr/share/perl is Perl4. 

The port should simply call h2ph (the real one in /usr/local/bin) instead.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

h2ph is now run as a part of the post-install target.
