--- Comment #6 from Mikhail T. <mi@ALDAN.algebra.com> ---
(In reply to Mathieu Arnold from comment #5)
> We do not support partial upgrades, never had, never will.

Mathieu, what "partial upgrade" are you talking about? I just want to add a new
perl-module to my existing install. Is that an invalid use-case in your
opinion?

> If you need to do something Perl related with a non supported,
> outdated, expired version

I really don't care, which perl-version I have installed -- and would've
upgraded it, had it been possible. But it is not -- because you "do not support
partial upgrades", so I'm sticking with 5.10.1. The module I'm trying to add
does not insist on a newer version of Perl, so why can't I install it?

Because perl@ folks are too cool to give any thought to Perl installed 2 years
ago?
