Please mention this in the package description. For instance, this is what I put in podlators-perl: Note that the Perl core distribution (supplied in the perl package) already includes older versions of these modules and scripts. Please depend on this package only if you specifically need the newer features, for instance the improved UTF-8 support. Also see #497130, which led to the removal of the previous incarnation of libfile-temp-perl (at version 0.20). -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
