portupgrade a zavislost na Perl-5.8.8

[Miroslav Lachman]

Jen by me tak zajimalo, od kdy je portupgrade zavisly na Perlu 5.8.8? 
Drive jsem si nikdy nevsimnul, ze by byl vubec na Perlu zavisly.

Ted jsem dal na jendom starickem systemu s FreeBSD 4.11 'portupgrade 
portupgrade' a zacal se tam instalovat Perl 5.8.8 (byla tam starsi verze 
Perlu). Ne ze by to az tak moc vadilo, ale zkratka me prekvapuje, ze 
portupgrade, ktery je napsany v Ruby, si vyzada upgrade Perlu na 5.8.8.

Jeste je pak zarazejici to, ze vytvoreni balicku skonci s chybou:

Samozrejme vim o tom, ze 4.11 uz je 'mrtva' a tak dale, jen me zkratka 
prekvapuje, ze to vyzaduje konkretni verzi Perlu a ze balickovani skonci 
s chybou. To by se mi oboje zrovna jevilo jako nezavisle na verzi systemu.
