MidnightBSD Developer Journal

For users interested in upgrading to current, there are two paths.  You can install the 0.3 snapshot from january and then do a src upgrade or you can upgrade from 0.2.1-RELEASE-p7.  In the latter case, you must delete the src/usr.bin/Makefile line for perl.  It is safe to build system perl after the update to current.  This will be fixed at a later time.  Once you are on current you can optionally build the system perl (and reinstall your ports using perl files) or leave the ports perl for now. You can also uncomment the pcc line if you want to play with it.  

updated ports:

mports/textproc/libxml++26/ 

mports/lang/p5-F77/

mports/lang/p5-Data-JavaScript/ 

 mports/devel/pear (fixed)

mports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-fpit/ (fixed)

 mports/Mk/extensions/perl5.mk: (fixed with system perl)

mports/misc/wmweather+

mports/misc/p5-Geography-Countries

mports/mbone/xspeakfree 

mports/mbone/wb

mports/mbone/speak_freely

mports/mbone/udpcast

mports/mail/wmymail

mports/mail/razor-agents 

We had a great improvement with the latest magus run over the last run.  Note the number is not the number of ports blocked, but rather a weighted value for it's importance in the run.
