I don't think this worked. Presumably you forgot to bcc control@bdo. But never mind that, I think it's libdist-inkt-perl that needs to change.

I expect Dist::Inkt needs to adapt. Once that is done, we should probably add a Breaks on the perl side for older versions. Please file a separate bug about that. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org
