Hi, I'd like to get Perl 5.44 in forky. Perl 5.44 was released last summer and has been in experimental since August. As usual, I've run rebuild testing and a couple of debci test rounds with it. Bugs are at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?tag=perl-5.44-transition;[email protected] Remaining blockers that I'm aware of: - libdbd-pg-perl (#1151887): patch available, should be easy to fix - polymake (#1148360): needs upstream work, no idea about the status - libapp-stacktrace-perl (#1148361): dead upstream, RM candidate? - libje-perl (#1148363): likewise Can I upgrade these to serious? Is it feasible to remove polymake from testing if it isn't fixed? I'm not interested in working on it myself (mainly because of the hardcoded refusal to even try to build with newer Perl versions.) Thanks for your work on the release, -- Niko
