I'm going to release Perl 5.40.0 to Cygwin in a few days. I've skipped
5.38 in order to update only every second year (which I've done since
the 5.22 release). I haven't seen any trouble in my own Perl
distribution packages from the update even though there are lots of them
that haven't been updated since at least 5.22. So I hope it will be
smooth sailing for anything else depending on Perl also.
Any maintainer having packages that depend on perl5_036 or below should
re-release or upgrade these soon-ish after the Perl update is available,
as otherwise users are either blocked from upgrading Perl or will have
to uninstall the affected packages. The rebuilt packages need to have a
dependency on perl5_040, which cygport provides automatically when
building with the new Perl.
Packages that need an update from perl5_036 are:

The current list of things still needing rebuilds can be found at:
https://cygwin.com/packages/reports/perl_rebuilds.html
Just to reassure maintainers and encourage adopters:
graphviz ORPHANED
libproxy ORPHANED
link-grammar ORPHANED
net-snmp ORPHANED
openwsman ORPHANED
marisa ORPHANED
ming ORPHANED DONE
nginx ORPHANED
xfconf ORPHANED
zbar ORPHANED DONE Maintained
zinnia ORPHANED
I would think graphviz and nginx might have lots of users?
Any ideas what others may have significant dependencies or users?
Jon did NMUs on these last year, so they should be in decent shape for adopters
- any maintainers who are users and would be interested takers?
