perl5.12 asks me to deactivate a port I do not have installed

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))
I am trying to install perl5.12 but installer complains port a2p is being used by perl5.8. Problem is, I do not have port a2p installed (and I do not believe such port exists). I therefore cannot deactivate it and complete the perl5.12 installation.
"Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /opt/local/bin/a2p is being used by the active perl5.8 port. Please deactivate this port first, or use 'port -f activate perl5.12' to force the activation."
I am including the main.log and the list of my installed ports

It's not claiming you have an a2p port installed. It's claiming you have a perl5.8 port installed, which you need to deactivate in order to be able to install perl5.12.
