Package: libtext-iconv-perl

Dear Maintainer,

Trying to install the package

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
   * What was the outcome of this action?

# apt-get install libtext-iconv-perl

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I would expect the package to be installed.
It seems the package still depends on perl-base 5.24.1 when perl-5.26.0 is
installed by all updates.

Welcome to the Perl 5.26 transition!

This situation is normal and expected during perl transitions. The
rebuilds are being made and the dependency will be fixed in a few
days. See https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2017/07/msg00003.html

If you are running unstable, it is a good idea to subscribe to 
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/ and/or 
https://wiki.debian.org/TopicDebianDevel .


Cheers,
gregor
