I'm not quite sure why grepmail is on this list since it seems to just
contain a perl script
I think hexchat should also be on this list, as it provides a perl
scripting plugin.

I think this should be 'rxvt-unicode'. I'll take care of updating that,
as I did for the last perl update.

Not quite sure that git* and texinfo should be on this list. They seem
to contain perl scripts and perl modules which are installed elsewhere
than vendor_perl.
