Source: devscripts
Version: 2.13.2
Severity: serious
Justification: transition imminent
User: debian-perl at lists.debian.org
Usertags: perl-5.18-transition
Tags: sid jessie

This package FTBFS with perl 5.18:

pod2man --utf8 --center=" " --release="Debian Utilities" transition-check.pl > t
ransition-check.1
transition-check.pl around line 66: Expected text after =item, not a number
POD document had syntax errors at /usr/bin/pod2man line 71.
make[2]: *** [transition-check.1] Error 255
make[1]: *** [make_scripts] Error 2

pod2man has become more strict with this release.

Cheers,
Dominic.
