I am in the process of upgrading my system to run current with hamm and had a problem with the libmime-perl pkg relating to the libwww-perl pkg that prevented both pkgs from configuring.
First libwww-perl requires libmime-base64-perl which does not exist. I figured that libmime-perl provided this so I edited it's entry in /var/lib/dpkg/status to reflect this. Then I discovered that libmime-perl depends on libwww-perl (which depends on libmime-perl) hence running dpkg --pending --configure segfaulted. I fixed this by removing the libmime-perl's dependancy on libwww-perl from the status file. Was this an error in the libmime-perl pkg, or did I make it work when it shouldn't have?? Thanks!
