Thanks for your report. Multiarching the perl packages is very much work in progress, and will be improved (but not finished) in the 5.22 packages in experimental. I'm not sure how much we (as in Debian whole) promise wrt. multiarched systems currently, but it certainly isn't broken on purpose. However, this bug report isn't very actionable as-is. Were you upgrading from stable or an older version of testing? Did such upgrades work for you before? Have you tried with apt instead of aptitude? I must note that unless there is an easy fix, I don't expect much to happen in this area in unstable/testing before the 5.22 packages get there (probably in a couple of months or so.) -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
