#18446 closed defect (duplicate)

p5-extutils-parsexs won't activate unless forced

Port: p5-extutils-parsexs

Description (last modified by blb@…)

Hi,

the following happens if I try to install software depending on p5-extutils-parsexs:

--->  Activating p5-extutils-parsexs @2.19_0
Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /opt/MacPorts/share/man/man3/ExtUtils::ParseXS.3pm.gz is being used by the active perl5.8 port.  Please deactivate this port first, or use the -f flag to force the activation.
Error: The following dependencies failed to build: p5-test-warn p5-array-compare p5-module-build p5-extutils-parsexs p5-module-signature p5-digest-sha p5-version p5-yaml p5-sub-uplevel p5-test-exception p5-test-simple p5-tree-dag_node
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.

of course the following works, but its *NOT* nice:

dreamind@paris:~% sudo port activate -f p5-extutils-parsexs
--->  Activating p5-extutils-parsexs
Warning: File /opt/MacPorts/share/man/man3/ExtUtils::ParseXS.3pm.gz already exists.  Moving to: /opt/MacPorts/share/man/man3/ExtUtils::ParseXS.3pm.gz.mp_1234304728.

For some reason the man page is also in perl5.8.

Greetings,

Stefan

Dup of #12710. Unfortunately an issue with several p5 ports.
