Package: perl
Version: 5.8.8-6.1
Tags: ftbfs
Severity: serious

The Perl test suite fails on the test "lib/Net/Ping/t/500_ping_icmp"
when run on a Linux VServer, because it tries to ping 127.0.0.1 which
is not available on a VServer.  Perl should not make assumptions on
the network setup, and should not think that 127.0.0.1 is reachable
via ICMP.

The important part of the build log:

lib/Net/Ping/t/450_service................ok
lib/Net/Ping/t/500_ping_icmp..............# Failed test 2 in
../lib/Net/Ping/t/500_ping_icmp.t at line 28
#  ../lib/Net/Ping/t/500_ping_icmp.t line 28 is:   ok
$p->ping("127.0.0.1");
FAILED at test 2
lib/Net/Ping/t/510_ping_udp...............ok
