Does neither fail with 5.8.8 nor with 5.10.1_rc2.
*** Bug 282643 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Please consider adding "[perl-experimental] dev-lang/perl-5.10.0-r2: ..." to the summary, as that is the actualy broken package, and it is a bug in the perl-experimental overlay. Further affected packages are: perl-core/Module-CoreList-2.18 dev-util/subversion-1.6.5
(In reply to comment #4) > Further affected packages are: > perl-core/Module-CoreList-2.18 > dev-util/subversion-1.6.5 app-arch/rpm-5.1.6
Re-merging perl-core/ExtUtils-MakeMaker seems to solve the problem, this is weird.
Indeed, perl-5.10.1 + running perl-cleaner seems to fix this.
So let's pretend it never happened ;) Until it happens again.
