That's what gitweb 1:2.1.3-1 does. Cf. its changelog and #765525. So unless there's a missing piece (I haven't downloaded the source package right now), Carl's errors are a bit mysterious to me. Carl, is it possible that you're running gitweb not as a single-instance CGI but as a long-running process (f(ast)cgi?) which needs to be restarted? Or that you have different (local) gitweb versions lying around and the one which is hitting this problem is not the one from the package? In any case, if there is still a problem in gitweb, which I don't see right now, this needs to be discussed and fixed in gitweb (probably #765525), only then libcgi-pm-perl could do something about the Breaks:.
