Subject:	Problems with perl pakages in TEST

Last day I installed perl-5.14.4-3 and perl_base-5.14.4-3 which are in 
TEST (really this was not intentional: I clicked a 'next' too soon).

After this, my attempts to build Emacs from git (master) failed



$ ./autogen
Checking whether you have the necessary tools...
(Read INSTALL.REPO for more details on building Emacs)

Checking for autoconf (need at least version 2.65)...
ok
Checking for automake (need at least version 1.11)...
missing

Building Emacs from the repository requires the following specialized 
programs:
autoconf (minimum version 2.65)
automake (minimum version 1.11)

Your system seems to be missing the following tool(s):
automake (missing)

If you think you have the required tools, please add them to your PATH
and re-run this script.

Otherwise, please try installing them.
On systems using rpm and yum, try: "yum install PACKAGE"
On systems using dpkg and apt, try: "apt-get install PACKAGE"
Then re-run this script.

If you do not have permission to do this, or if the version provided
by your system is too old, it is normally straightforward to build
these packages from source.  You can find the sources at:

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/PACKAGE/

Download the package (make sure you get at least the minimum version
listed above), extract it using tar, then run configure, make,
make install.  Add the installation directory to your PATH and re-run
this script.

If you know that the required versions are in your PATH, but this
script has made an error, then you can simply run

autoreconf -fi -I m4

instead of this script.

Please report any problems with this script to bug-gnu-emacs AT gnu DOT org .




Only reinstalling the default 5.14.4-1 version of the above packages 
fixes the issue.

I have verified this both with Cygwin 1.7-34 and 1.7-35-003, so it is 
caused only by the perl packages in TEST (Exp)


BTW, to find what packages caused this, I had to work a bit. It seems 
that Setup does not allow to determine which TEST (Exp) packages one had 
installed.. When I click Exp in Full it shows all installed packages 
without a clear distinction between Curr and Exp...

Ciao,
  Angelo.
