Package: perl-base
Followup-For: Bug #537356


I downgraded perl to Lenny version and now I can again configure
packages because the postinst scripts update-alternatives and
update-mimme do not segfault. I can run rxvt-unicode again as well.

The downside is that current apt requires the new libperl which is the
sole reason I had it installed.
