Hi Penny, I removed that dependency entirely from safe-rm 0.8 so this shouldn't be a problem in future perl upgrades.
That said, you're right, it doesn't actually solve the problem because unless you upgrade your version of safe-rm before upgrading perl, then you'll run into this problem. On the other hand, I'm not sure what I can do from the safe-rm side (other than what I've done -- removing the dependency). I'm guessing that something would need to be done on the perl side but I hesitate to reassign the bug. Given the difference in the popcon score between perl and safe-rm, I doubt they will want to add checks in their package to make sure that safe-rm is at least 0.8.
