Package: libbio-asn1-entrezgene-perl
Version: 1.700-1
Severity: normal
User: debian-perl at lists.debian.org
Usertags: perl-5.24-transition

Building this package triggers deprecation warnings with Perl 5.24
(currently in experimental), and probably with Perl 5.22 (current sid)
too.

  Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\G{ <-- HERE / at /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/blib/lib/Bio/ASN1/EntrezGene.pm line 148.
  Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\G{ <-- HERE / at /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/blib/lib/Bio/ASN1/Sequence.pm line 155.

The offending file is installed in a binary package, so this has
runtime effects as well. At least the bioperl package is affected.
