[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#578550: altree: FTBFS with perl 5.12.0-1: long doubles

[Niko Tyni]

Package: altree
Version: 1.0.1-3
Severity: important
User: debian-perl at lists.debian.org
Usertags: perl-5.12-transition

This package fails to build on amd64 with perl 5.12.0-1 from experimental:

  t/ALTree-CUtils.t ....... ok
  
  #   Failed test 'double_permutation'
  #   at t/double_permutation.t line 24.
  #     Structures begin differing at:
  #          $got->{pmin} = '0.200000000000000011'
  #     $expected->{pmin} = '0.2'
  # Looks like you failed 1 test of 3.
  t/double_permutation.t .. 
  Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
  Failed 1/3 subtests 
  
This almost certainly happens because the new perl version is configured
to use long doubles (-Duselongdouble).
