The dependencies for request-tracker3.4 are complex and cannot be expressed in one single statement. There are at least two relevant here: libapache-mod-perl | libapache-mod-speedycgi | libapache-mod-fastcgi | libapache2-mod-fastcgi libapache-mod-perl | libapache-mod-speedycgi | libcgi-fast-perl So, taking the two statements: (A | B | C | D) & (A | B | E) We could, if the Debian dependency spec allowed us, rewrite this as: A | B | (C & E) | (D & E) It is not the case that libapache2-mod-fastcgi directly depends on libcgi-fast-perl. If that were the case I would not need to specify it myself as it would be in the dependency list for the libapache2-mod-fastcgi package itself. It is that the perl in request-tracker3.4 needs libcgi-fast-perl in order to communicate with libapache2-mod-fastcgi (or libapache-mod-fastcgi).
