As you can see the message here is different than the one in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/doc-base/+bug/891257 The UUID module is imported by Debian::DocBase::Programs::Scrollkeeper inside eval block (see http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=users/robert/doc-base.git;a=blob;f=install-docs.in;hb=198fa3f3e55f8d82e2807d986f50e5a699ddd1d3#l28) If the eval block fails, install-docs creates a special /var/lib/doc-base/info/FORCE-REREGISTER.flag file, and exits with error code 0 so it should not affect upgrades. The existance of the file should cause install-docs to re-register all documents next time install-docs is called. The message you saw if printed by 'warn $@ if $@;'. It might be a bit misleading to users, I'm thinking about changing it in the way that make it obvious that it's not a real error message. > The extra dependency on uuid-runtime is unfortunate, but necessary with > this approach (and calling out to uuidgen probably is slower with lots scrollkeeper-gen-seriesid from rarian-compat can be used instead. doc-base already suggests rarian-compat and won't call GenUUID() in case the package is not installed. However the issue is that doc-base doesn't work with rarian-compat at all (see #546208), so maybe dropping support for it from doc-base would be a better option than trying to ensure the DocBase::Scrollkeeper module remains usable on perl upgrades.
