--- Begin Message ---Package: src:perl Version: 5.20.1-1 Severity: serious Justification: missing source User: helm...@debian.org Usertags: rebootstrap Dear perl maintainers, I approach you with a difficult matter. The "Configure" script distributed with the perl source package claims that it is being generated. Porting/pumpkin.pod claims that Configure can be re-created by invoking metaconfig -m. Indeed, there is a metaconfig binary in the dist package. Running it on the perl tree does create a Configure that remotely resembles the shipped Configure with a diff of about 18000 lines (75%). In the recreated Configure many tests are missing and perl won't build. It seems that perl's Configure cannot be recreated from Debian sources. These observations let me conclude that the perl package - in spirit - violates the DFSG by not providing the sources for Configure. I still hope that this conclusion is flawed and ask you to adjust the severity accordingly. Helmut
