What is the intented fix? I think declaring conflict is not an option, I'd expect to be able to install both Catalyst and its manual at the same time :) From what I see, C::M contained in libcatalyst-perl is just a pointer to the rest of the docs (which are shipped in catalyst-manual). The manual in libcatalyst-manual-perl is not much better, it says to see Catalyst::Manual::Intro and Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial. As I see it, libcatalyst-manual-perl should divert the above two files from libcatalyst-perl. Both variants suggest installing stuff from CPAN. Should this be patched in the debian packages? For Lenny? -- dam JabberID: d...@jabber.minus273.org
