RRD confusion



I've been using a script called weathergraph on a FreeBSD box for years.
Last week I upgraded the machine, and the script stopped working.

One of the "dirty little secrets" about FreeBSD is it's poor handling of
perl upgrades. I've found that I have to reinstall all the modules I need,
after perl is upgraded on these machine. Now normally this is not a huge
deal, as I can do it the the portupgrade tool.

However in this case, it looks like this script uses a module not in the
FreeBSD ports system: Here's the line:

use RRDs;

I'm confused as to what module I need to get from CPAM to hand el this
properly.

Can someone enlighten me, please?
