When installing my own perl modules in a special self-contained place to allow for multiple concurrent installations, testing, up-and-downgrading, etc. I do not want BSDPAN faking package install information because it screws up the package database. There doesn't seem to be any way of stopping it for certain perl module installations.
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-ports-bugs->tobez I'll see what can be done.
State Changed From-To: open->closed After the recent update of lang/perl5 and lang/perl5.8, BSDPAN can be disabled by setting DISABLE_BSDPAN environment variable to a value recognized by Perl as true.
