A few remarks, after looking the source: -- libfile-slurp-perl is not a dependency anymore from version 0.7.9 (cf. the diff between commits 9a00cd (version 0.7.9) and 91830b (version 0.7.8) at upstream's cvs: https://github.com/sukria/Backup-Manager , branch 'releases').
-- libnet-amazon-s3-perl is indeed a dependency. However upstream code does test for module's existence and fails gracefully if it is not present. By gracefully I mean that it does signal an error and logs to syslog (through the 'print_error' function) if the module is not present. I believe this was done at 0.7.9 version, also. Thus libnet-amazon-s3-perl is a "soft" dependency (deserving a Suggests) and all issues reported by the OP are now fixed by upstream. Therefore, I propose to update the control file, removing the libfile-slurp-perl from the "Suggests" section (libnet-amazon-s3-perl is already there) and close the bug. Cheers, George
