Bug reports for Debian package should be reported to Debian, best via
the "reportbug" tool. Please do so the next time. For this time, I do
it for you with this mail by bcc'ing sub...@bugs.debian.org. :-)

Yes and no.
No, it should not be a hard dependency, because other checks in the
package works fine without that module and it should be possible to
use just a single check from the package without installing
dependencies only needed for other checks.
The rule is that checks which are enabled by default, should have
their (hard) dependencies in Recommends, so that they are installed by
default (at least with default APT settings :-). All other
dependencies should be under "Suggests".
And that's where the "yes" comes from: libfile-slurp-perl is only in
Suggests, but libs is installed by default. This happened when I added
support for /var/run/reboot-required to the libs check and used
File::Slurp for that: I knew that File::Slurp was already used in
other checks, but I didn't realize that all those other checks which
use File::Slurp are not enabled by default.
Will fix it soon in git and it will be fixed with the next upload.
Kind regards, Axel

Distribution: unstable
Urgency: medium
Maintainer: Christoph Berg <m...@debian.org>
Changed-By: Axel Beckert <a...@debian.org>
Description:
hobbit-plugins - plugins for the Xymon network monitor
Closes: 903493
Changes:
hobbit-plugins (20180711) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* net:
+ Support checking amount of packages per ten seconds (via
/proc/net/dev, similar to "netstat -i")
+ Support checking for minima or maxima instead of just fixed values
or the presence of keywords.
+ The check now requires libfile-slurp-perl as new dependency.
+ Mention check in long package description.
+ Better error handling if YAML::Tiny can't parse the config file.
+ Document issues with older versions of YAML::Tiny in README.md.
* Hobbit.pm:
+ Under some circumstances the die handler gets a scalar ref instead
of just a scalar. Handle that case and dereference the scalar ref
first in that case.
+ Add trailing newlines to various outputs of croak() and moan() for
better readability.
* Fix typo in previous changelog entry.
* Move libfile-slurp-perl from Suggests to Recommends as it is now used
by the libs check which is enabled by default. Thanks to Jaap Winius!
(Closes: #903493)
* Declare compliance with Debian Policy 4.1.5. (No changes needed.)
