Created attachment 1038088 [details] Build log against Perl 5.22
AFAIS, the cause is perl-5.22 issuing a couple of warnings, which confuse the po4a's testsuite. I am going to apply a couple of hacks consisting of 3 patches, which let the testsuite succeed again. However, I would expect po4a to have further similar compatibility issues at other places these patches do not address. FWIW: po4a-0.46 isn't much better. Upstream seems to have addressed one of the problems my patches address, but seem to have introduced another one.
