Package: pdl
Version: 1:2.4.3-3
Severity: normal

pdl no longer depends upon pgperl, which means that
PDL::Graphics::PGPLOT won't work.  Unfortunately I've got some 8+
years of scripts which depend upon PDL::Graphics::PGPLOT, so this is a
major breakage.  Switching to PLplot isn't an option.  Any chance of
getting support for PGPLOT back in?  It looks like pgperl (the vital
missing ingredient) is no longer a supported package.

Thanks!

Diab
