Package: troffcvt Version: 1.04-22 Severity: serious Justification: package uninstallable Tags: sid patch User: debian-p...@lists.debian.org Usertags: perl-5.22-transition
The perl 5.22 transition recently started (see https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2015/12/msg00005.html) and we seem to have missed that this package depends on the deprecated virtual package "perl5" like some other packages did. The perl 5.22 packages don't provide perl5, making this package uninstallable. I'm sorry that we overlooked this prior to the unstable upload. Please find below a patch fixing this. Let me know if you'd like this to be NMUed without further delay. --- debian/control.orig 2015-12-18 16:30:58.612191151 +0000 +++ debian/control 2015-12-18 16:31:04.068142131 +0000 @@ -9,7 +9,7 @@ Package: troffcvt Architecture: any -Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, perl5, groff (>= 1.17.1-1), debianutils (>= 1.6) +Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, perl, groff (>= 1.17.1-1), debianutils (>= 1.6) Description: Converts troff source to HTML, RTF, and plain text Use this package to convert manuals and manpages and other documents written using troff to more manageable formats, such as HTML, RTF, Cheers, Dominic.
