There was a package, but it was retracted after it broke some
things. Basicaly any module, which is not pure perl, needs to be
recompiled. Also Perl50.005 doesn't contain /usr/lib/perl in the
include path any more (IIRC).
AFAIK, there packages are still around in some save place. Ask the
maintainer (perl@packages.debian.org) about the location. He may also
have more infos for you about a save way to upgrade.
The debian-devel archives of Oktober should have some threads about
Perl 5.005
Ciao,
