OK... I see what you mean, but I do not know enough about Perl or FreeBSD to know if this makes sense or not. My gut feeling was that the system 'perl' package was somehow broken on that particular image. As I wrote in my reply to Carlo, just switching to FreeBSD 12.3 also makes the error disappear. > > The error you quote doesn't tell us anything about where it happened, > which aside from anything else would be useful to have in the commit > message.
