Package: libtext-iconv-perl Version: 1.7-4 Severity: normal This is a dependency of debconf-i18n, so its new dependency on perl, rather than perl-base, bloats the base system with perl.
I don't know why that change was made; there is no indication in the changelog. It should be un-made; if something from perl is actually needed, it should be put into perl-base. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libtext-iconv-perl depends on: ii libc6 2.13-17 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii perl 5.12.4-4 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-base [perlapi-5.12.4] 5.12.4-4 minimal Perl system libtext-iconv-perl recommends no packages. libtext-iconv-perl suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- see shy jo
