Howto upgrade perl without removing everything

[Richard <richard@g8jvm.com>]

Hi,
Playing dangerously with Sid, and I've reached the limit of what it will upgrade to
without some help.
Nearly everything has a dependency on perl, the perl version has change, so how do just upgrade the
perl base.
I can't see the equivalent of rpm --nodeps in apt-get, and clean up the mess afterwards.
TIA
