For those who will settle for unofficial packcages, I have compiled perl5.6_5.6.1-5 and uploaded the packages to: <URL:http://www.tihlde.org/~oysteivi/hurd/> Packages pass the perl -e 'print "hello world\n"' test, but have not been tested further, as I do not know any perl. Debconf 0.9.71 would happily install with these packages on the system. (Warning: Anybody considering using these packages should note that I am not (yet) a debian developer, and therefore by definition shifty and not to be trusted. The choice is yours.) Oystein -- Nobody really reads these signatures anyway.
