Bug#808875: debian-installer: Perl transition
Source: debian-installer
Severity: serious
Justification: BD-Uninstallable etc.
[ Please keep debian-perl@ and debian-release@ in the loop. ]
Hi,
Just wanted to let you know that debian-installer still can't be built
since a few packages are missing. In my devel chroot, after a
dist-upgrade, I had to rebuild the following packages to make
debiandoc-sgml installable:
debiandoc-sgml
libhtml-parser-perl
libhtml-tagset-perl
libroman-perl
libtext-format-perl
I've seen at least one of them getting a binNMU so I thought I'd cc
perl and release teams…
In addition, one can see that kind of warnings during the build now:
| Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex;
| marked by <-- HERE in m/\${ <-- HERE BOOTPROMPT}\n?$/ at
| util/bootvars-subst line 13.
so one has to make sure how much d-i is affected by this transition.
Mraw,
KiBi.
