Hi all
I didn't hear back from Colin, and so I think in order to unblock
the perl 5.32 transition we need to NMU either a targeted fix for
perl 5.32 compatibility, or the new upstream release. I'm not sure
which is more appropriate given the time since the last release in
Debian.
Any takers? I'm a bit short on time myself, these days.
See
http://perl.debian.net/ for the test repository you might need
to verify fixes.
Thanks,
Dominic

Hi,
although Perl 5.32 is not released yet, we've just started early
testing against the archive during our online Debian Perl Sprint.
One of the issues we noticed is that the current perl-tk version in sid
is incompatible with newer versions of Perl, causing build failures with perl-tk reverse dependencies.
The problem is fixed upstream in the 804.035 release according to
the changelog. Importing that into Debian would help our testing
efforts. Please consider doing that, and let us know if you'd like
any help.
Fixed upstream in https://github.com/eserte/perl-tk/commit/59dfbd147d894596b93f0a8dba5a5cf5af11ceaf
which is in the current 804.035 release.
Perl 5.32 is already released upstream and uploded to
Debian/experimental, so it would be nice to have perl-tk fixed
soonish as well.
Hi Colin,
This is one of the few remaining blockers for the Perl 5.32 transition
which we'll need to get in in the next couple of months - will you be
able to take a look at updating perl-tk in the near future?
Thanks,
Dominic
