This is a probably incomplete list of things that are contributing to keeping perl 5.8 out of testing. Probably incomplete because I didn't look at RC bugs of all packages that need to go into testing at the same time as perl 5.8, and I probably missed some stuff in the tedium of researching this list. abiword FTBFS #161149 libconvert-uulib-perl s390 not keeping up amavis arm not keeping up; s390 build failed as libconvert-uulib-perl was uninistallable there axkit ia64 is not keeping up courier FTBFS #162324 dchub still depends on libperl5.6, FTBFS #159121 frozen-bubble out of date on mipsel, arm, hppa. Retry? gimp1.2-perl out of date on hppa, ia64, mipsel gnome-db out of date on alpha, mipsel inn still needs update for perl 5.8 FTBFS #158462 inn2 still needs update for perl 5.8 libberkeleydb-perl VERY old FTBFS #104885 libcdk-perl hppa FTBFS; no bug filed libcflow-perl out of date on m68k libcurses-perl FTBFS #160527 (easy) libdbd-odbc-perl out of date on ia64 libdbd-pg-perl out of date on alpha as dependency failed to install; try rebuild? libdbd-sybase-perl out of date on arm, m68k, mipsel, s390 due to missing source dep. Retry builds? libdigest-md4-perl FTBFS on mipsel, no bug filed libgd-noxpm-perl still needs rebuild for perl 5.8 libgd-perl still needs rebuild for perl 5.8 libgtk-perl out of date on hppa, ia64 until libxml-parser-perl gets fixed libjcode-pm-perl out of date on alpha, ia64 lockdev out of date on mipsel, very weird debhelper failure; retry build. libnet-ssleay-perl FTBFS #160538 (easy) postgresql out of date on most architectures due to python error #159261 (also has a number of grave bugs..) sdlperl FTBFS #159921 (easy) net-snmp FTBFS #157117 libming FTBFS #160531, #159388, #160440 libxml-parser-perl FTBFS on ia64 due to unmet build dep. Retry. vim outdated on arm, mipsel, powerpc, sparc xchat FTBFS on mips due to source package corruption (retry?) -- see shy jo
