Hi!
If libmail-box-perl (which is currently a Recommends) is not installed:
$ /usr/bin/podebconf-report-po
Can't locate Mail/Box/Manager.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl
/usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5
/usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10
/usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/bin/podebconf-report-po line 1144.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/podebconf-report-po line 1144.
The code is already trying to print out a better error message in this
case, it's just using "use" where it should use "import". Attached
patch fixes this:
$ /tmp/podebconf-report-po --postpone=/tmp/xx
[...]
The --postpone and --mutt options require the perl Mail::Box package. Please
install the Debian libmail-box-perl package if you want to use these options.
No mail written or sent. at /tmp/podebconf-report-po line 1160, <> line 1.
The patch also drops libmail-box-perl to Suggests:, since it isn't
necessary for most things you do with po-debconf, and it pulls in a
plethora of perl modules. With the fixed failure mode from above, the
Suggests: definition matches this best, IMHO.
Thank you for considering,
Martin
