>Description:
The ssh pkg checks for the existance of 'perl5' when configuring.
Unfortunately the perl5 package installs 'perl' and 'perl5.00404',
but no 'perl5'.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install the perl5 pkg, then build the ssh package and watch the
output.
>Fix:
Either modify the perl5 build to create the link, or the ssh build
to check for 'perl' instead.
