Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.

See https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=79154
1.94 Tue 26 Jun 2012 09:51:27 BST
- Make one of the tests a bit more flexible, to accommodate a subtle
change in behaviour caused by a recent change to perl
(viz a0d2bbd5c47035a4f7369e4fddd46b502764d86e).
1.93 Sun 5 Feb 2012 15:52:57 GMT
- Correct the version number in META.yml
(https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=59459)
Do this by using MakeMaker to auto-generate META.yml, to prevent
similar problems in future. This is possible because the new
MakeMaker parameter MIN_PERL_VERSION was added in MakeMaker 6.47_01;
the fact that this didn't used to exist is the reason we managed
META.yml by hand till now.
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!

PadWalker is a module which allows you to inspect (and even change!)
lexical variables in any subroutine which called you. It will only
show those variables which are in scope at the point of the call.
PadWalker is particularly useful for debugging. It's even used by
Perl's built-in debugger. (It can also be used for evil, of course.)
I wouldn't recommend using PadWalker directly in production code,
but it's your call. Some of the modules that use PadWalker internally
are certainly safe for and useful in production.
