Gnatsweb 2.8.0

Gnatsweb 2.8.0

[Graham Lillico]

Hi,

I am currently running on FreeBSD-4.3-20010429-STABLE and trying to install 
gnatsweb 2.8.0 but I have hit a problem, it seems that gnatsweb requires CGI 
version 2.56 or greater and I only have 2.46 installed, I think (but could 
quite easily be wrong) that gnatsweb gets its version from CGI.pm but the 
newer version does not use CGI.pm as far as I can tell.

My question is how do I upgrade my version of CGI? I have tried compiling 
p5-CGI-2.76 from the ports collection but this doesn't seems to have changed 
anything.

Is this a bug?  If so let me know and I will raise a PR about it.

Regards Graham

If you have the CPAN perl module installed, do the following:
perl -MCPAN -e 'install CGI'

If you don't have the CPAN module installed, get CGI.pm manually from 
http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/L/LD/LDS/CGI.pm-2.753.tar.gz

Then unpack and follow the instructions in the Readme file.

This is of course all assuming you have the permissions to install things 
on your machine.

Hope this helps,
