Is there a way to determine which version of a package is the correct 
and default one?
For example. Perl5.
/usr/ports/lang shows: perl5.34, perl5.36, perl5.38
yet, if you compile any of those, they declare the default is 5.32.
5.32 is not even in the available list.
A tad confusing.

In general tho, postgresql 13 .. 16
llvm15 .. 17
python.
