I'm afraid the chances are very low.
Lenny is frozen since 27th July [0], which means that packages move from
sid to lenny only after a manual approval by the release team. The
current guidelines for freeze exception from 1st December can be
found at [0] and [1], and I think that libio-socket-ssl-perl does not
qualify [2].
The "normal" criteria for moving to testing (i.e. when there is no
freeze before a release) are described at [3].
Cheers,
gregor

Hello!
First, thanks to anonymous who checked my packaging for
libspreadsheet-read-perl. I have some questions about the TODO posted
in the changelog;
- libtext-csv-perl is twice in Depends, with different versions - ?!
maybe the second should be libtext-csv-xs-perl?
I am not sure how that happened, I am certain it was not manual. I
suspect I have to check the mechanism by which that field gets
populated automatically.
- debian/copyright: years of upstream copyright don't match what upstream
claims
Hrm, Tux updated the package and changed the copyright - I'll have to
do the same.
- installing the examples might be nice
Will do.
- there's a 0.28 release on CPAN, and I don't find a 0.27 tarball
Going to update the entire package.
- most tests are skipped, some build dependencies might help

Sure, sorry

Hi.
I'd like to give you (Debian Perl Group) some packages to maintain:
libbsd-resource-perl
libcgi-ssi-perl
libclass-singleton-perl
libdatetime-locale-perl
libdatetime-perl
libdatetime-timezone-perl
libipc-run3-perl
libmime-explode-perl
libxml-autowriter-perl
The most complicated are libdatetime-timezone-perl and
libdatetime-locale-perl. These packages are rebuit from true source data
(Olson DB or locale data) because it is necessary to satisfy DFSG.
Another problem is that libdatetime-timezone-perl should go to volatile
archive so it is necessary to maintain also older versions.
All packages are YADA based. I think you could convert them to debhelper.
Thanks.

Hm, interesting.
It was not tagged before I did it and I don't see it in NEW.
What am I missing?
Cheers,

There's also the newly created pet-devel list :)

I don't fully understand what you propose. What would be the logic
that PET should gain? If I read correctly the packages-wip directory
is used for packages that under PET are shown as WIP anyways... So
getting rid of it sounds sensible to me

Please unblock libfile-sharedir-perl/0.05-1.2
The upload closes a grave #496122[1]
[1] http://bugs.debian.org/496122
The time, the fix is backported from the 1.00 upstream release. The
actual quilt patch can be seen here[2] (interdiff-ed patches suck)
[2] http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/pkg-perl/trunk/libfile-sharedir-perl/debian/patches/fix...
Changelog:
libfile-sharedir-perl (0.05-1.2) unstable; urgency=high
* Non-maintainer upload.
* add fix-dist-path.patch, fixing a regression in shared directory
layout. Closes: #496122

tags 496122 + patch
thanks
Hi,
Attached is the diff for my libfile-sharedir-perl 0.05-1.2 NMU.
It closes a grave regression in 0.05 that is fixed upstream in 1.00.
However, new upstream releases are inappropriate for Lenny, hence the
fix was backported.
Please consider offering the package for adoption. Debian Perl Group
is willing to take over. Mail debian-perl@ lists.debian.org (cc-ed) or
come say hello on #debian-perl.
