Package: perl-modules-5.22 Version: 5.22.0-1 Severity: important Affects: autopkgtest
During test rebuilds, I noticed (via autopkgtest, which uses apt-get downloads on this module as part of the test suite) an odd effect with libtest-tester-perl. This (and libtest-use-ok-perl) are now virtual packages, as they have been folded into both perl and libtest-simple-perl. This transcript shows the problem: (perl-5.22-amd64-sbuild)root@kale:~# apt-get install libtest-tester-perl Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...

I think the solution is probably to have perl-modules-5.22 Provides libtest-tester-perl (et al) (in other words revert 5da2d5650164e49a400bec6c304f7e6bc0c98411) but I'd welcome other thoughts.
