Yes to this. But to spot these more easily in the future, we can add some magic to debian/rules and debian/control to force the dependency. They'll still need a binNMU, but I suspect that some automated/manual mechanisms will pick this up sooner if it causes an installability problem (hopefully without having to involve pkg-perl at all). It's only a trivial annoyance with 5.10.0 and 5.10.1, but with future jumps it could break stuff, in the worst case. -- Tim Retout <[email protected]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
