Well to get the best results, one must scour the perldelta(.*) pages for

shows the modz that
are due to be pulled in 5.19.0 there are others in the later perldeltas
that are going into the deprecated list as well.
https://metacpan.org/pod/release/RJBS/perl-5.19.8/pod/perl5197delta.pod#Removed_Modules_and_Pragmata
shows CGI.pm going into deprecated status,
https://metacpan.org/pod/release/RJBS/perl-5.19.8/pod/perl5196delta.pod#Deprecations
has some more as well. I'm not sure
how easy it'd be to script that, a
corelist --dif 5.18.0 5.19.0 | grep absent
Seems to be a good way to determine that, but it implies having 5.19.0
installed. Maybe we should have a perl-developer-release AUR package to
simplify the process? though that could get messy with all the community
modules that may depend on deprecated code from the developer-releases.
Thoughts?
I stand corrected, corelist --dif 5.18.0 5.19.7 does in fact work on the
current installed version of Perl from the Arch Core repo. And it shows
those modules not in CORE Perl as of 5.18 that will be by 5.19.7, so
that will be very easy to script :)
