Thanks for your bug report. Not sure what's going on here, but since this all works fine on my system (with perl 5.20.0-6 and amd64 as well), I doubt that there's a general grave issue. -- And I guess we would have heard before if there were a general problem :) % perl -e 'use File::Find;' % apt-file didn't crash some minutes ago; and gdb also doesn't show anything: Starting program: /usr/bin/perl -e 'use File::Find' [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled] Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".
