So I wasn't able to upgrade perl5 from perl5.32 to perl5.34 smoothly by "pkg upgrade" and I decided to switch to latest. And then I realized the package update frequency on latest is much worse than quarterly. It hasn't been updated for more than 1 month.

FreeBSD's ampere3 aarch64 port build server status shows for default 132arm64:

So: no completed updates since 2023-Sep-16 or so. The existing build is stuck.
