Strange, these dependencies got to call 5.18.1-2 as well. Sparc64 does
both. Because 5.18.1-2 is what's in the repo. You can check the sheets.
http://packages.debian.org/sid/liblocale-gettext-perl
http://packages.debian.org/sid/libtext-charwidth-perl
http://packages.debian.org/sid/libtext-iconv-perl
http://ftp.debian-ports.org/debian/pool-sparc64/main/p/perl/
About using stable; Debian-ports repo does unstable, experimental, sid and
unreleased. True it's main only.
