[Cipux-devel] Bug#788133: cipux-cat-web: FTBFS with perl 5.22 due to perl-modules dep

Source: cipux-cat-web
Version: 3.4.0.3-4.1
Severity: important
User: debian-perl at lists.debian.org
Usertags: perl-5.22-transition

3.4.0.3-4.1 contains a versioned build-depends:

perl-modules (>= 5.10.0) | libmodule-build-perl (>= 0.2808)

however the package description states that perl-modules should be
considered an internal implementation detail of perl and shoudn't be
depended upon.

With the perl 5.22 work in experimental, perl-modules is gone, and
this causes the FTBFS issue with sbuild. (It's still provided, but
this doesn't work with versioned depends.)

libmodule-build-perl is being removed from perl/perl-modules in any
case, so the correct fix is to just build-depend on libmodule-build-perl
(unversioned, given the age of 0.2808)

This bug will become RC nearer the time of the perl 5.22 transition to
unstable.

Cheers,
Dominic.
