Right, I got an email from Debian testing autoremoval watch saying it was 
about to be removed, but nevermind. 

The code can be checked out from 
https://bitbucket.org/tobyink/p5-html-html5-parser
or
https://github.com/tobyink/p5-html-html5-parser
AFAIK, Toby prefers Hg.

May I suggest that the test cases in this bug are rewritten so that they 
can go in the test harness (i.e. as .t files), and a pull request is opened 
for that. Then, Greg's suggested patch seems to go at the core issue, so 
that seems like the thing to do. With this, Toby can hopefully make a new 
release soon.

Best,

Kjetil

There doesn't seem to be a dependency.

libtest-rdf-perl depends on librdf-trine-perl, but

  apt install -s --no-install-recommends librdf-trine-perl

doesn't install libhtml-html5-parser-perl.

The cause seems to be the recommended librdf-rdfa-parser-perl.

Hi all!

I just noticed https://bugs.debian.org/750946 since my Test::RDF depends on 
HTML::HTML5::Parser (though, I don't quite understand how that dependency 
arises) and I would be affected by a removal. 

I haven't looked at the problem itself, but I would just like to report 
that the upstream dev, Toby Inkster has recently resumed development after  
a hiatus, so all hope isn't lost. 

Best,

Kjetil
