To: gentoo-dev
The current set of ebuilds for MakeMaker were originally added to
address some major differences between how perl 5.6.X and 5.8.X built
modules. Since we no longer support 5.6.X at all, these ebuilds do
little more than complicate people's understandings of what they need on
their box for a functioning perl. Unless there are objections, I'd like
to remove these packages in the next week (I'd say Monday, but I expect
if there are going to be protests, I'll hear about it soon enough). Thanks,
~mcummings
