Perl and perl-cpanplus conflict?

I am using testing, and upon upgrading, it looks like perl has some conflicting files with perl-cpanplus and perl-module-corelist

Anyone else have this?

Re: Perl and perl-cpanplus conflict?

Both of the conflicting packages are from the community repo, so they are built against core/extra only. If they are important to you, you have two choices - disable testing, or rebuild the conflicting packages yourself against testing/perl.

Oh, didn't realize they were from community....assumptions, assumptions...
