But let's see… Thanks Étienne. Unfortunately this didn't fix it. Turns out it's a bug in Test-Harness > 3.44, recently fixed in 3.50. Gregor has updated the separate libtest-harness-perl package to 3.50 in sid/trixie, but the version bundled with Perl 5.40 is still buggy. So reassigning. This could be worked around in libtap-formatter-junit-perl with a build dependy on libtest-harness-perl (>= 3.50). But it's a regression on the Perl side, so I suppose we should fix it there properly. Reassigning. I won't be uploading a fix before the next Debian keyring update, as my key there is currently expired (whoops!) Happy if Dominic can help, NMUs welcome too. -- Niko
