The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

Why is this a problem?  Having /bin/perl there is only for compatibility
issues.  Some really old things look for /bin/perl.  It comes back as a
symbolic link in the postinst.

The solution that you have shouldn't be necessary.  If the symbolic link
isn't running in the postinst, something is wrong and Perl shouldn't be
marked as configured.  Also, the symbolic link should be relative rather
than absolute.
