Port Request: Perl DateTime::Format::ICal — at Version 2

Port: p5-datetime-format-ical

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

Hi, I'd really appreciate a port of the Perl module "DateTime::Format::ICal".

I tried following the instructions on the Wiki page "howto/cpan2port", but to no avail. I've generated a portfile, but it fails with this error:

$ port build
Warning: MacPorts running without privileges. You may be unable to complete certain actions (e.g. install).
--->  Computing dependencies for p5-datetime-format-ical
Error: Dependency 'p5.12-datetime-format-ical' not found.
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
To report a bug, see <http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets>

In case it helps, I've attached the portfile that I generated with cpan2port.

I'd appreciate a port, of course, but also any pointers on what I did wrong when trying to port it myself. I'd happily contribute any (successful) port if I run into another Perl module in the future.

Grr, sorry about the formatting. I should have read the guide a bit better.

I can do one better; I tried to track down unsatisfied dependencies that weren't ported yet. I'll attach a .zip file of all of the resulting portfiles. Note that I still can't seem to build any of them; each time, it fails because it can't find a "p5.12-*" dependency...

For pedantry's sake, this was the error message I originally got:

$ port build
Warning: MacPorts running without privileges. You may be unable to complete certain actions (e.g. install).
--->  Computing dependencies for p5-datetime-format-ical
Error: Dependency 'p5.12-datetime-format-ical' not found.
