Thanks.

OK, now that Contents-i386 is up to date again, a revised list:

  /usr/lib/perl5/5.005

    freewrl                     libcdk-perl
    liblockdev1-perl            libsql-statement-perl
    perl-tk                     libmail-cclient-perl
    libcgi-pm-perl

  /usr/lib/perl5/5.6

    ipchains-perl               libapache-request-perl
    libcdb-file-perl            libchatbot-eliza-perl
    libcorba-orbit-perl         libhtml-mason-perl
    libhtml-template-perl       libimage-size-perl
    libio-stringy-perl          libnet-hotline-perl
    libnet-irc-perl             libstring-approx-perl
    libsufary-perl              libunicode-map8-perl
    libunicode-string-perl      htag
    libmime-perl                netcdf-perl
    libtext-iconv-perl

Another problem has come to light.  Some packages are installing into
perl's privlib.  This is rather nasty, as that directory will change in
the 5.6.1 packages so all of these will break:

  /usr/lib/perl/5.6.0

    pilot-link-perl             libgd-perl
    libdevel-symdump-perl       libfile-tail-perl
    libft-perl                  libnkf-perl
    libsnmp-perl                libxml-sablot-perl
    speedy-cgi-perl             dcopperl
    libpgperl                   grepmail
    pdl                         irssi-text
    libapache-mod-perl

The mechanism for building modules under these packages is extremely
simple, and described in:

    http://people.debian.org/~bod/perl-policy/ch-module_packages.html

I would urge all module packagers to read it.  The current version at
that URL (1.19) should hopefully be the final version to go into
debian-policy.  The proposal (Bug#83977) was upgraded to [AMENDMENT]
today.
