I agree with that, although Eloy's idea of moving catalyst to pkg-perl was partly because he'd like some help (AIUI).

BTW, there is Catalyst-Runtime dist on CPAN (that is libcatalyst-perl upstream source) of version 5.8000_05 with three pages of changes since 5.7x. Catalyst::Model is still there though. Aaah, your pointer to the Lenny version was indeed very good. libcatalyst-perl 5.7014-1 has this in debian/rules: $(MAKE) install DESTDIR=$(TMP) PREFIX=/usr mv $(TMP)/usr/share/perl5/Catalyst/Manual.pm\ $(TMP)/usr/share/perl5/Catalyst/Manual/Runtime.pm mv $(TMP)/usr/share/man/man3/Catalyst::Manual.3pm\ $(TMP)/usr/share/man/man3/Catalyst::Manual::Runtime.3pm In 5.7016-1 this was replaced with the standard dh7 stuff: dh install I guess adding back the plumbing used in 5.7014-1 would fix the conflict. -- dam JabberID: d...@jabber.minus273.org
