I think we still want to release with Perl 5.36 even if this isn't fixed in time for bookworm. I've just uploaded libmetacpan-client-perl 2.030000-2 with the warnings whitelisted so the autopkgtest checks won't block the 5.36 transition. I've also prodded the upstream ticket a bit, hoping that somebody would determine if it needs to be fixed in Perl or JSON::PP. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org
