Guys,
My attempt at upgrade failed this evening due to the following perl dependency:
23:50 archangel:~> pmsu

kdemod-legacy is up to date

Do you want to skip the above package(s) for this upgrade? [y/N]

kdemod-legacy is up to date
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community-testing is up to date
community is up to date
archlinuxfr is up to date
warning: perl-5.10.1-5 is up to date -- skipping
there is nothing to do
This doesn't make since as there are no perl>=5.12.1 in any of the active
repositories. If system-tools-backends us in 'community' then should its
dependencies also be available?
