around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
Mb2md.pl is a Perl script that takes one or more Mbox format mailbox
files in a directory and convert them to Maildir format mailboxes.
Mb2md.pl does not only convert mailbox files into a Maildir but
also the /var/spool/mail/$USER mailspool file. It is smart enough
to not transfer a dummy message such as the UW IMAPD puts at the
start of Mbox mailboxes - and you could add your own search terms
into the script to make it ignore other forms of dummy first message.
