Ben Hines has again raised the issue of how we handle perl modules which are
provided by newer versions of perl, but were not provided by older versions
of perl. This has been brought up before by JF Mertens.
I'm the owner of one of the modules which is provided by perl580 (text-tabs-wrap-pm).
When JFM brought this up back in August he suggested that,
"appropriate 'Replaces' fields be put in those packages, and in perl580."
I didn't do anything to my package in August, and I forgot to do so since then.
Now that you remind me of it, I think it would be a good time to finally correct
the flaw in my package. Unfortunately, I find that I don't really understand
what I have to do - stupid me :-(
JFMs suggestion can't really mean that I have to put
Replaces: perl580
into my package, can it?
Any enlightenment would be welcome Patrick
