Bug#1066498: dh-make-perl: autopkgtest regression due to time_t transition

[Graham Inggs]

Source: dh-make-perl
Version: 0.123
Severity: serious
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: regression

Hi Maintainer

dh-make-perl's autopkgtest regress when tested with perl/5.38.2-3.2
[1].  I've copied what I hope is the relevant part of the log below.

>From what I can see on the excuses page for perl [2], dh-make-perl's
autopkgtests are the only ones failing on all architectures, besides
perl's own.  Do these test cases need updating to handle the 't64'?

Regards
Graham
