Good morning! Just a heads up that upgrading the following two
packages attempts to remove 141 unrelated packages in Sid/Unstable
this morning:
perl 5.24.1~rc3-2
perl-base 5.24.1~rc3-2
Before running "apt-get dist-upgrade", I always simulate first with:
apt-get dist-upgrade -s -V
in case "apt-get dist-upgrade" want to resolve a conflict by doing
something helpful like removing most of an architecture or desktop. The
same simulation works with "apt-get upgrade", which is much less
aggressive and continues to work during a dist-upgrade-breaking transition.
Kind regards,
