Control: retitle -1 libmoox-options-perl: test regression with librole-tiny-perl 2.001003-1
Control: forwarded -1 https://github.com/celogeek/MooX-Options/pull/69

Hi again,

The test suite still passes after upgrading
libnamespace-autoclean-perl, but it starts failing once I upgrade
librole-tiny-perl from 2.001001-1 to 2.001003-1 (both with
libnamespace-autoclean-perl 0.28-1 and 0.29-1, so that one is
definitely not the culprit).

I've implemented a workaround, sent it in a RFC PR upstream, and I'll
apply it to our package now in order to mitigate a bit the impact of
this bug. But I'm not convinced at all that it's the correct place to
fix this: I suspect this problem is merely a symptom of a regression
in librole-tiny-perl, but the codebase of that one is far outside of
my comfort zone.

In passing, I see that this newer librole-tiny-perl also breaks the
test suite of libattean-perl:
https://ci.debian.net/data/autopkgtest/testing/amd64/liba/libattean-perl/3157349/log.gz
But that seems to be another problem and I did not dive into it.

Cheers,
