[arch-general] perl-xml-parser vs. perlxml: dependency probs
Is anybody else getting dependency errors involving the attempted replacement of perlxml by perl-xml-parser? I've got libxml-perl and perl-sml-dom both requiring perlxml, thus stopping the replacement. Should I just sit tight and let the backroom boyz fix it?

Thanks. I should have checked the bug tracker. I'm still not sure what the workaround if, if any.

Apparently the perl-xml-parser-2.36.5 (now in [testing]) will fix this. Should I force installation of the testing package, though? When I try, I'm getting "... exists in filesystem" warnings. I generally assume that I shouldn't dabble in [testing] if I'm not going to jump in with both feet and update everything from testing.

Thank you, Andrea. I knew somebody was on the case. Sorry if I sounded impatient, especially for something that wasn't a show-stopper. I just get all anxious if I can run pacman -Syu (which I do far too often).
