Hi Niels,

Sorry about this. At this stage I think it might be better to wait
until perl 5.26 has transitioned, so we can reassess all the various
breakages without the local modifications that we introduced for 5.24.

I think a transition bug will be opened soon, so this shouldn't delay
by more than another couple of months, which should be acceptable for 
the buster release?

Cheers,
Dominic.
