Description Scott Ingram 2012-12-08 15:40:00 UTC 
While trying to upgrade from perl-5.12.4 to perl 5.16.2, the final install
consistently failed at installing /usr/local/man/man1/zipdetails.1.gz
citing a conflict with p5-IO-Compress-2.045 which also installs
/usr/local/man/man1/zipdetails.1.gz.

Fix: 

execute "pkg delete -fy p5-IO-Compress-2.045" prior to building perl5.16.
Suggest adding a note to "UPDATING" until file conflict resolution is
handled more gracefully by pkg.
How-To-Repeat: System built as follows:  net install from PCBSD 9.0; portsnap dated
12/07/2012; build pkg/portmaster per UPDATING, update pkgconf/pkg-config
per UPDATING, pkg2ng.

execute "portmaster -o lang/perl5.16 lang/perl5.12" or "make install
lang//perl5.16"; install fails on file conflict

Is problem still present with p5-IO-Compress-2.063 ?

It's been two years since this bug was filed, and 15 months since a ping was sent out unreturned. perl5.12 was removed about a year ago, so hopefully everybody has successfully upgraded perl and IO::Compress by now. Closing this PR.
