This package fails to build from source with Perl 5.44.0 (currently
in experimental.)

  #   Failed test 'attributes.pm dependencies'
  #   at t/03-perlprov.t line 32.
  #                   'perl(attributes.pm)'
  #     doesn't match '(?^:^perl\(attributes\.pm\)\ \=\ 0\.(\d|$))'
  # Looks like you failed 1 test of 30.

There's a possible patch by Jitka Plesnikova in the upstream ticket.

If you want to test changes against Perl 5.44 in experimental and run
into uninstallability problems, there is a test repository of rebuilt
Debian sid packages for amd64 available at <https://perl.debian.net/>.
