Interesting.
feature is in perl-modules (5.10.1) or perl-base (5.14 and 5.16):

perl-base: /usr/share/perl/5.14.2/feature.pm
perl-base: /usr/share/perl/5.16.2/feature.pm
perl-modules: /usr/share/perl/5.10.1/feature.pm

(And the /usr/share/perl/5.10 in your @INC output is a symlink to
/usr/share/perl/5.10.1 where the file is.)

Is this some timing issue, like the old perl-modules half uninstalled
or something?

Cc'in the perl maintainers, they might have seen something like this
already :)


Cheers,
