This is at most partially correct: At least, after the update, the install directories change; here from /usr/lib/perl5/{vendor_perl,}/5.20.1 to /usr/lib/perl5/{vendor_perl,}/5.20.2 So, at least, perl-cleaner wants to rebuild, and it is sane to do this (for various reasons: avoiding confusion with mixed directories, compitability with binary packages, omitting redundant directories). Moreover, I didn't check before the rebuild, but after the rebuild there is no 5.20.1 in @INC. (So it might be even the case that the rebuild is *necessary*). I suggest to either use the same 5.x directory for all 5.x versions, or to include 5.x.y into the subslot name to avoid the above mentioned minor inconsistencies. After all, the final aim is to use subslots instead of perl-cleaner, isn't it?
