FreeBSD thorin.area51.cdumke.de 9.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE #0 r243825: Tue Dec 4 09:23:10 UTC 2012 root at farrell.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
>Description:
The base installation does not install perl which is needed for ports "make index"
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/root/bin
SHELL=/bin/csh
A "find / -name perl" did not find a perl-environment on the system.
>How-To-Repeat:
After a clean installation with cdrom disk 1 (amd64) and all packages selected I login as root and do the following steps:
1. cd /usr/ports
2. make index (with following output)
root at thorin:/usr/ports # make index
Generating INDEX-9 - please wait..perl: not found
"Makefile", line 31: warning: "perl -V:archname" returned non-zero status
perl: not found
Done.
>Fix:
manually install perl from the ports-collection
