As a status update: I've just NMUed the last one of the perl-5.10-ftbfs-rmdir bugs. This weekend's BSP made mass-uploads easy. Anyway, only two dozens of packages are left to fix up for 5.10, most of which have already patches. As these include more complex fixes, I would love to wait with those until perl5.10 is uploaded to unstable, so that fixes can be tested more easily. Anyway, the actual reason for #465783 has been fixed, so I'm closing the bug again. In other news, I think that April 16th might not work out. We've sorted out openexr/kdelibs now, but perl5.10 is still in the queue behind python2.5 and the infamous suitesparse/OO.org transition. Marc -- BOFH #172: pseudo-user on a pseudo-terminal
