Source: perl Version: 5.34.0-4 Severity: serious Control: block -1 by 1014280
The perl package recently started failing its autopkgtest checks in testing. # Failed test 'no potential packages for new Provides/Replaces/Breaks found in the archive' # at debian/t/control.t line 303. # got: 'libtext-balanced-perl' # expected: '' # Looks like you failed 1 test of 590. debian/t/control.t .. This is because libtext-balanced-perl got introduced in the archive and we need to add corresponding metadata for it in the perl package. A complication is that pdl has added an unversioned dependency on libtext-balanced-perl while it really needs a newer one. So making the perl core packages Provide libtext-balanced-perl will break pdl. I've filed a separate bug about this, and would prefer to have pdl changed first. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org
