Description studded 1998-05-06 11:10:01 UTC
	This is a port of sirc, an excellent perl-based IRC client. Many thanks to
all who helped me with the tricky issues in the port Makefile. I'm happy to say that
the port installs, deinstalls, packages, unpackages, slices, dices, etc. :)  The
only warning from 'portlint -a -c -N' is:

WARN: dependency to perl5 listed in RUN_DEPENDS. consider using USE_PERL5.

which seems harmless to me since it's doing what I want it to do as is. If there is
a reason to make a change in this port please let me know the reasoning behind the
change since it will assist me greatly as I move on to my next porting project. :)

Fix: Commit this bad boy! (Please :)

Looks good in general, but regarding: 

do-install: 
${MKDIR} -m 775 ${PREFIX}/libexec/sirc 

Does it need to be 775?  Unless there's a reason otherwise, I think 
we expect directories to be 755.

(I've taken responsibility for this PR.)

I've changed it to USE_PERL5 in the copy I'm working on.  There's
almost no difference; /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk says:

.if defined(USE_PERL5)
BUILD_DEPENDS+=         perl5.00404:${PORTSDIR}/lang/perl5
RUN_DEPENDS+=           perl5.00404:${PORTSDIR}/lang/perl5
.endif

It's basically just a convenient shorthand we have, but since we
have it, it's nice to use it for consistency.

Matt

This probably isn't necessary.

Agreed, I've removed it.
