Source: gbrowse
Version: 2.26~dfsg-1
Severity: serious
The package fails to build from source if the buildd does not have
libbsd-dev already installed:
http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=gbrowse&arch=armhf&ver=2.26~dfsg-1&stamp=1303210928
libbsd-dev is an optional package, some buildds might have it, but
it's not a requirement.
Please add it in the build dependencies.
Thanks

This is exactly what I did, apparently the previous perl build for armhf was
done with libbsd-dev installed, so what you suggested happened, once
I decided to clean up the buildds from redundant packages.
All problematic packages were then rebuilt with the newer perl and there
was no error.
So I am closing the bugs as false alarms. Sorry for the fuss eveyone...
Thanks
