yes, that works and this is how this should be fixed for wheezy / testing-
proposed-updates.

for experimental (why not sid? I'm currently offline and cant check...) it 
should be fixed properly, see

http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianPerlGroup/OpenTasks/Transitions/Perl4CoreLibs
 
untested patch is at http://paste.debian.net/220647/

but as said, thats too much change for such a bug in wheezy at this time.

I'll read it when I have network again, but this cannot be true. You can 
always update testing via testing-proposed-updates, though the prefered way is 
via sid.

I'd be happy to review and sponsor uploads for you (if sponsoring is still 
needed?).


cheers,
