Package: perl-base Version: 5.30.3-4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
usrmerge will be needed to be installed upon upgrades to bookworm to convert systems to merged /usr. It would be helpful for small installs to be able to perform that without installing the larger perl package. Please consider moving things that usrmerge & libfile-find-rule-perl use from per/perl-modules to perl-base. Specifically please move: Fatal.pm File/Find.pm Tie/RefHash.pm autodie.pm autodie/Scope/Guard.pm autodie/Scope/GuardStack.pm autodie/Util.pm if.pm Once the above is done: libfile-find-rule-perl, libnumber-compare-perl, libtext-glob-perl would all be able to depend on just perl-base, and thus usrmerge will be able to just depend on perl-base too. In bookworm+1 you may drop these things from perl-base and add breaks on usrmerge. Regards, Dimitri.
