Comment 1 Kent Fredric (IRC: kent\n) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2017-12-25 03:00:39 UTC
That looks like somebody used binpkg's for both, but built irssi against perl 5.24.3.

And irssi been built for 5.24.1 it would deploy "ok" against 5.24.3 ( due to the 'oldversions' logic in Perl ) under the proviso that perl 5.24.3 had been built on a system with a legacy 5.24.1 @INC dir.

But the inverse is not true, because the historical mechanic only uses versions  /older/ than the perl version in build, not *newer*.

However, the simple fix should be to simply reinstall irssi without using a binpkg.
