Package: perl
Version: 5.22.1~rc4-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
When spamassassin is installed, upgrading perl et al. from sid/5.20
to experimental/5.22.1~rc4-1 breaks due to a trigger cycle, see below.
I believe perl.postinst should trigger 'perl-major-upgrade' with
'noawait'. Quoting deb-triggers(5):
The “-noawait” variants should always be favored when possible
since triggering packages are not put in triggers-awaited state and
can thus be immediately configured without requiring the processing
of the trigger. If the triggering packages are dependencies of
other upgraded packages, it will avoid an early trigger processing
run and make it possible to run the trigger only once as one of the
last steps of the upgrade.
It seems sensible that perl configuration shouldn't wait for spamassassin
to recompile its ruleset.
I've tested locally that
