This package is uninstallable with perl 5.18 from experimental (in a clean sbuild session), since it depends (and build-depends) on perl (<< 5.17). Rationale from git log: commit 2c311ac7d0e44a5fd053a144257d84a786964e5f Author: Joenio Costa <[email protected]> Date: Fri Jan 25 09:47:18 2013 -0300 avoid running with perl version 5.17 Log::Report (XML::Compile depends that) v0.94 (current version packaged in Debian) breaks with perl 5.17. "Log::Report had a problem with the dynamic hash ordering of Perl 5.17 This made Log::Report fail regression tests, and with it also the XML::Compile tests." http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=82918 Bug#710796 has probably addressed the Log::Report issues. I suggest: - Revove the perl (<< 5.17) dependency - Check that XML::Compile builds and works with the newer Log::Report and perl 5.18. - If there are still issues not reported in the BTS, report them, tagging them user: [email protected], usertags: perl-5.18-transition, and set those bugs to affect libxml-compile-perl.
