Revisiting Perl

See original GitHub issue

We recently added a new version Perl. As I recently experienced while doing some testing, this going to start resulting in matrices of Perl. Am opening this issue to discuss how we want to deal with this. Do we wish to constrain the Perl versions used at conda-forge? Should we start pinning the version? Do we just wish to tweak conda-smithy’s lower bound on Perl?

Cool. So I guess instead of trying to fix conda-build-all, which we would like to phase out and replace with conda-build 3, maybe it is better for us to work out what perl should look like in a new version of conda-smithy and staged-recipes that use conda-build 3.

It appears this issue does not persist in conda-smithy 3 RC. ( https://github.com/conda-forge/openmpi-feedstock/pull/19 ) We provide some guidance on constraining perl. However changing to an older version for perl has the same outcome. IOW this issue appears to be solved in the development version of conda-smithy.
