Upstream is going to keep Shell around for 5.14 and (presumably) remove it in 5.16 because of this issue. I suppose we don't therefore need a separate libshell-perl for now. http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2010/05/msg160155.html Dominic, I think we should ask ftpmaster to reject libshell-perl from NEW.
