[NEW] p5-iodef-pb-simple

[jul_bsd@…]

Perl extension providing high level API access to Iodef::Pb. It takes simple key-pair hashes and maps them to the appropriate IODEF classes using a Module::Pluggable framework of plugins.

I move dependencies to perl5.branch -like (which would be nice if it was existing)

Some Notes:

• Variants for perl versions make no sense for a perl module using the perl portgroup. The sub-ports are automatic.
• The dependencies need to be fixed for all sub-ports.
• Use ​modern checksums

[jul_bsd@…]

I join a file which revert to p5- dependencies and updated checksums.

• I think I did that because dependencies where not resolving correctly without. I replace dependencies with p5- something but that doesn't seem correct to me. I joined a port destroot log for 5.16 and 5.18 and p5.12 ports are appearing and corresponding deps are not installed. or the problem is with p5-json-xs ? doesn't seem so.
• what do you mean? there is no subport here or do you mean other ports depending on this one? the problem was more when other port ask for this one, the dependencies list generated mixed multiple versions of perl
• see #43238

What I mean is that it is not correct to depend on the stub ports p5-*. Instead you must use the following construct which appears in many p5-* ports. The stub port itself does not actually do or install anything and does not have any dependencies.

if {${perl5.major} != ""} {
    depends_lib-append  port:p${perl5.major}-foo1 \
                        port:p${perl5.major}-foo2 \
                        ...
}

To clarify, notice the difference between the stub port and an actual sub-port:

$ port deps p5-wx
Full Name: p5-wx @0.992.300_0
Library Dependencies: p5.16-wx

$ port deps p5.16-wx
Full Name: p5.16-wx @0.992.300_0
Build Dependencies:   p5.16-extutils-xspp
Library Dependencies: perl5.16, p5.16-alien-wxwidgets, wxWidgets-3.0

yeah, just saw that while reviewing other port

Cc Me!

Clicking dependencies on ​http://search.cpan.org/dist/Iodef-Pb-Simple/ shows a lot other dependencies. I didn't check which of these are really needed, but many of them are missing in your port.

slight modifications

I think you should also attempt to make the description shorter. Put the full description into long_description and try to shorten the main one.
