Re: [INFO] About the perl upgrade
It doesn't look like everything is quite there yet:
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Calculating Upgrade... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
popt
The following NEW packages will be installed:
libpopt0
The following packages have been kept back
libterm-readline-gnu-perl liblocale-gettext-perl abiword
libmime-base64-perl
libwww-perl libdigest-md5-perl
2 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 1 to remove and 6 not upgraded.
1 packages not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 548kB of archives. After unpacking 131kB will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
