Bug #1530: perl-584 should be obsoleted rather than renamed
https://www.illumos.org/issues/1530

Author: Bayard Bell
Status: New
Priority: Normal
Assignee: OI PKG
Category: Release Engineering
Target version: oi_151_stable
Difficulty: Medium
Tags: Perl


OI dealt with the removal from runtime/perl-584 by maintaining a manifest for that renamed it to 510. This was intended to deal with the removal by providing a smooth transition path, but it now looks to be masking other bugs, as recently turned out to be the case with some Illumos manifests. (The Illumos issues is #1521, and those changes, now pending developer@ review, will need to be pulled into the OI illumos-gate once integrated upstream.)

OI will need to make a change to its illumos-gate used in 151, marking the 5.8.4 runtime as obsolete rather than renamed, which can be expected to break some things and reveal bugs in the process.
