Package: perl Version: 5.18.1-2 Severity: serious Hi,
as discussed with Dom, Niko and Jonas on #debian-perl: The Perl 5.18 upgrade on one of my boxes (kfreebsd-i386, cdebconf, tons of devel and desktop packages installed) went bad because libscalar-list-utils-perl should have been upgraded earlier. (Niko Tyni mentioned that this is probablu there since 1.23_03 -- which dropped the fallback to pure perl versions.) I haven't all the output anymore, but this was basically the caused deadlock: On kfreebsd-i386 Sid after the Perl 5.18 upgrade: ~ # dpkg --configure --pending Setting up libxml-libxml-perl (2.0010+dfsg-1+b1) ...

The previously installed one was the one built against Perl 5.14 while perl and perl-modules itselves were already at the 5.18.1-2 version. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (600, 'testing'), (110, 'experimental') Architecture: kfreebsd-i386 (i386) Kernel: kFreeBSD 9.1-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages perl depends on: ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.6-5 ii libc0.1 2.17-92 ii libdb5.1 5.1.29-7 ii libgdbm3 1.8.3-12 ii perl-base 5.18.1-2 ii perl-modules 5.18.1-2 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-1 Versions of packages perl recommends: ii netbase 5.1 Versions of packages perl suggests: ii libterm-readline-gnu-perl 1.20-2+b2 ii libterm-readline-perl-perl 1.0303-1 ii make 3.82-1 ii perl-doc 5.18.1-2 -- no debconf information -- debsums errors found: Perl API version v5.14.0 of File::FnMatch does not match v5.18.0 at /usr/lib/perl/5.18/DynaLoader.pm line 207.
