Thanks to ANDK for bug report.
BUGFIX: http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=74843
minor robustness suggestion to work with CPAN::Reporter
Database update (thx NHORNE and darrenrh-at-gmail for reminder)
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.
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!

documents that the user may wish to employ Geography::Countries in his/her
own code. Remove extraneous DEPENDS.
IP::Country only requires Geo::IP if using the MaxMind database wrapper
IP::Country::MaxMind. The default recommended database in IP::Country doc
(IP::Country::{Medium,Fast}) is builtin to IP::Country and does not require
Geo::IP at all. Remove optional DEPENDS, and add a MESSAGE instead.
Bump PKGREVISION for changes.
Finding the home country of a client using only the IP address can be
difficult. Looking up the domain name associated with that address can
provide some help, but many IP address are not reverse mapped to any
useful domain, and the most common domain (.com) offers no help when
looking for country.
This perl module comes bundled with a database of countries where various
IP addresses have been assigned. Although the country of assignment will
probably be the country associated with a large ISP rather than the
client herself, this is probably good enough for most log analysis
applications, and under test has proved to be as accurate as reverse-DNS
and WHOIS lookup.
