I think we should go through a somewhat formal deprecation process
before we drop the Perl bindings upstream. I'll start
a conversation there.
I think we could be a bit faster & bolder on the Debian front, but the
upstream conversation may yield information we're not aware of, so
before acting here I'd rather give folks a few weeks on the upstream
mailing list to express themselves :)
Meanwhile, I've pushed my WIP to this branch:
https://salsa.debian.org/apparmor-team/apparmor/-/tree/debian/993565-remove-libapparmor-perl
Cheers!
