Package: libxml-simple-perl
Version: 2.16-1
Severity: serious
From my pbuilder build log:
...
-> Installing cdbs debhelper perl libxml-namespacesupport-perl
libxml-sax-perl libxml-libxml-perl libtie-ixhash-perl libxml-parser-perl
...
(cd . && /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor )
Checking installed modules ...
=============================================================================
Fatal error: Your default XML parser (XML::SAX::PurePerl) is broken.
There are known bugs in the PurePerl parser included with version 0.13
and 0.14 of XML::SAX. The XML::Simple tests will fail with this parser.
One way to avoid the problem is to install XML::SAX::Expat - it will
install itself as the system default XML parser and then you will be able
to install XML::Simple successfully. XML::SAX::Expat is also much faster
than XML::SAX::PurePerl so you probably want it anyway.
=============================================================================
make: *** [Makefile] Error 255
Even if I pbuilder login to the chroot and install libxml-sax-expat-perl
manually (in addition to the libxml-libxml-perl alternative), this message
still appears.

close 429902 now without further action. Anyone, feel free to reopen
and explain why.
