Subject: perl 5.003.07-7 doesn't install
package: perl
version: 5.003.07-7
Setting up perl (5.003.07-7) ...
ln: cannot create symbolic link `/usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00320/asm' to `asm-i386': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing perl (--install):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
I was able to work around it with an explicit
# mkdir /usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00320
but that shouldn't be necessary...
