Here's the current status:

All of the perl dependent packages have been rebuilt against perl
5.10.0, except for the following:

Broken packages
===========

Perlbal (logs are already garbage collected, bug filed, upstream
contacted)

perl-Perlbal-XS-HTTPHeaders (needs Perlbal to build)

perl-Sys-Virt:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=500071&name=build.log

perl-PDL:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=499915&name=build.log

perl-Test-AutoBuild:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=500085&name=build.log


Some failures which I cannot (or will not) resolve
===============================
clearsilver (broken, but not by new perl, bz 434141)
ocsinventory-client (broken, but due to be obsoleted by
ocsinventory-agent, bz 435593)

Essentially done
===========
perl-XML-Xerces will get built as soon as compat-xerces-c27 hits
rawhide.


... and thats it. We're really really close. I've contacted the package
maintainers for Sys::Virt, PDL, and Test::AutoBuild, but if you want to
take a crack at it, I'm sure they would be grateful.

If you want to build a test package, the TARGET=dist-f9-perl. If you
want to update your system to the perl-5.10.0 packages, use this repo:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/static-repos/dist-f9-perl-build-current/$basearch/

As a reminder, please, don't rebuild any perl dependent packages in
rawhide, until we get all of these rebuilds imported, which should
happen RSN (Monday at the latest). If you absolutely must do a rebuild,
use TARGET=dist-f9-perl.

Thanks,
