ack is a grep-like program with optimizations for searching through large
trees of source code.
Key improvements include:
* Defaults to only searching program source code
* Defaults to recursively searching directories
* Ignores blib directories.
* Ignores source code control directories, like CVS, .svn and _darcs.
* Uses Perl regular expressions
* Highlights matched text

Make it so that the default Perl is always called perl5.
- Move Perl's man1 files along with its man3 files.
- Move where Perl installs its modules man1 pages.
- Convert the ports installing man1 pages.
- Make different Perl versions installable at the same time.
Though you should note that only the default version can be used to
install Perl modules, and the non default Perl versions cannot use the
modules installed via ports if they contain .so as they are installed
in a version specific directory.

Change the way Perl modules are installed, update the default Perl to 5.18.
Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the

- Update to 2.04
- Use a more user-friendly site in pkg-descr.
- Remove OPTIONS, upstream does not ship completion files anymore.
Please note that ack2 is slightly incompatible with some options present in
ack1, see http://beyondgrep.com/ack-2.0/ for more information.

ack is a tool like grep, designed for programmers with large trees of
heterogeneous source code.
ack is written purely in Perl, and takes advantage of the power of
Perl's regular expressions
