Hi, I upgraded perl 5.8.9 to 5.10.1. I have a single CPAN Module which is not part of the ports.

FreeBSD ports which are currently marked broken
As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the FreeBSD ports system, we periodically notify users of ports that are marked as "broken" in their Makefiles.

I'm hoping to find one that's free... How can I use my webcam from KDE4? _______________________________... 20 Jan 2010 16:18
