True, but there's no reason to consider any of these other causes a bug in the package either, as opposed to a misconfiguration of the build environment. And the only autobuilder in Debian that uses vserver is the amd64 autobuilder, which appears to have been able to build this version of perl without incident; so I'm pretty sure there's no reason here to consider this bug 'serious'. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
