There is a large scale Perl transition going on - up to 400 packages
will be affected - a note's just been posted to the debian-devel
mailing list.

Don't file bugs - do expect some breakage - there is a published
transition plan.

Usual course of affairs for sid and to be expected from time to time:
as Cindy-Sue has already mentioned.

Leave it for a week / ten days and it will settle or update daily
and watch breakage gradually decrease.

IMHO - Including testing will just produce a Frankendebian where you can
never be sure what you have from where and which _will_ burn you
at some point.

All the best,

Andy C
