Yes, you are right. USE_LANGUAGES is just use for selecting the proper

I don't get a warning here (pkglint 4.90). Which version of pkglint are

Yes, it's the easiest way. And it's also correct.

Maybe you should add "net", since DHCP has something to do with networking.

Your program needs Perl at runtime, so you should write perl:run.

The man page belongs into section 1 (commands), not 5 (configuration files).

Apart from these minor things, you did great.
