+libcatalyst-action-rest-perl (1.12-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  From upstream Changes:  
+  
+  WARNING BACK COMPAT BREAKAGE FOLLOWS
+
+  Removed The YAML and HTML parser from the distro.  You 
+  should install these if you actually use them.  They are listed as
+  optional dependencies going forward. [0]
+
+  This is possibly a breaking change, but necessary for security and
+  considered acceptable since those formats have not generally
+  become preferred for web services.
+
+  In addition, the default de/serialization mappings for HTML and YAML
+  have been removed.  You can add that back by adding the following to
+  you Configuration for the subclass of Catalyst::Controller::REST -
+
+     package Foo::Controller::Bar;
+
+     use Moose;
+     use namespace::autoclean;
+
+     BEGIN { extends 'Catalyst::Controller::REST' }
+     __PACKAGE__->config(
+       'map' => {
+         'text/html'          => 'YAML::HTML',
+         'text/x-yaml'        => 'YAML',
+       },
+     );
+
+  You should do this if you are using these de/serialization formats.
