 You should get into the habit of checking this file for changes each time
 you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades.

+  lang/perl5.14 is out. If you want to switch to it from, for example
+  lang/perl5.12, that is:
+
+  Portupgrade users:
+    0) Fix pkgdb.db (for safety):
+	pkgdb -Ff
+
+    1) Reinstall new version of Perl (5.14):
+	env DISABLE_CONFLICTS=1 portupgrade -o lang/perl5.14 -f perl-5.12.\*
+
+    2) Reinstall everything that depends on Perl:
+	portupgrade -fr perl
+
+  Portmaster users:
+	portmaster -o lang/perl5.14 lang/perl5.12
+
+	Conservative:
+	portmaster p5-
+
+	Comprehensive (but perhaps overkill):
+	portmaster -r perl-
+
+  Note: If the "perl-" glob matches more than one port you will need to
+	specify the name of the Perl directory in /var/db/pkg explicitly.
