To send a clear message to the world, it may be better to simultaneously rename Perl6 and move Perl5 to a next major version (Perl 7 ?).
I think this would send several messages to the outside world:
both communities talk to each other and want to move beyond past mistakes
Perl is alive and evolving into Perl 7
Raku is a new language independent of Perl.
Thoughts ?

You can also install libimage-magick-perl version 6.8.9.9 with apt.
A more recent version (6.9.2.10) is available in experimental, so it should land in unstable sooner or later.
All the best

Commented on Why is the latest version of Devel::ptkdb not on CPAN? in Gábor Szabó - גאבור סבוtag:blogs.perl.org,2013:/users/gabor_szabo//272.5215#12627872013-11-11T15:06:42Zddumont
Looks like latest ptkdb won't stay out of CPAN for long: Matthew got co-maintainer status of ptkdb on CPAN and he's talking with Marco Marazzi to re-use the improvements done on the version of ptkdb hosted on sourceforge. For more details, see the comments in this blog ]]>
