Problem with portinstall of mod_perl

[Bill Schmitt (SW)]

I'm having some difficulty installing mod_perl (I tried make install, as 
well with the same results). I've tried reading through the various 
files I can find, and did several web searches, but haven't found 
anything pointing me in the right direction.

When I try to execute portinstall -r usr/ports/www/mod_perl under FBSD 
4.9, I get the following:

----------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------

perl5.8.0 isn't there because perl5.8.5 is. After reading through some 
suggestions for other things, I tried modifying pkg_tools.conf with the 
following lines:

  ALT_PKGDEP = {
'/usr/local/bin/perl5.8.0' => '/usr/local/bin/perl5.8.5'
  }

I'm relatively new to this, so I'd appreciate a more verbose help if 
possible.

Thanks,

Bill
