Should it be a .info test or a .dep test?
I tried a few grep-based heuristics on dists/10.7/finkinfo and found 40-80
such missing.
Probably doesn't hurt to have a val test.
It should be a .info test, I think. If a deb is built w/ perlXXX-core
present, but used where absent, the runtime error is pretty obvious. But a
build w/out perl5.x.y around will fail.
Added to git master (and also for python and ruby). I allowed a
dependency on another package with matched variant as an alternative to
a dependency on the language itself. That is,
bar-pm5124:Depends:foo-pm5124 is sufficient as it inherits an indirect
dep on perl5124-core via foo-pm5124 (which either has an explicit
Depends:perl5124-core or else recurses down to other *-pm5124).
It uncovered a handful of cases in 10.7/finkinfo, all fixed now. Please
let me know if your build/run testing finds any others (== this new
test is leaky) or other problems with it.
