Thanks.

Why do you say that? Once they are both built, they are both installable, are
they not?

perl-HTML-Parser is very low down in the build dependency hierarchy, and if it
was uninstallable then it would impact the build of 772 other packages, which
either build-require it or some other package that build-requires/requires it.

The build order as I see it at the moment is available here:
http://www.city-fan.org/~paul/perl-boot/buildorder

perl-HTML-Parser can be built in the 2nd pass and perl-HTTP-Message can be
built in the 3rd pass, so they should both be usable for builds from the 4th
pass onwards (where packages in pass N have at least one build dependency [or
runtime dependency of one] built in the previous pass and all packages in a
given pass can be built in parallel as they have no dependencies on each
other).

I described the boot process as I understand it in an email to the perl-devel
list last week:
