Version: 5.8.4-5
Severity: normal
enc2xs fails while generating its ConfigLocal.pm:

/ConfigLocal_PM.e2x : No such file or directory at /usr/bin/enc2xs line 1023.
The missing directories beneath /usr/local are not the cause for the
failure, but the path the function find_e2x() returns: it is empty.
So enc2xs tries to find /ConfigLocal_PM.e2x instead of
/usr/share/perl/5.8/Encode/ConfigLocal_PM.e2x
I debugged further and found File::find::find() seems to choke on the
symlink 5.8 -> 5.8.4 in /usr/share/perl, because if I remove the symlink
and "cp -a 5.8.4 5.8", enc2xs runs without problems:

I have _no_ idea, why it behaves this way, but it sure is disturbing and
might even affect other packages.
