If the thing you're doing involves 7 bajillion CPAN packages and cross dependencies with something large and complex, you're going to have a bad time.

You might find portgen(1) somewhat useful. For example, try something like this:

  doas portgen p5 Net::Hadoop::YARN

Ah crap--yes, that would have been very useful. Thank you, and I will definitely use this in the future.
