Thanks. This should read either something like libscalar-list-utils-perl (>= 1.45) | perl-base (>= 5.25.1) or alternatively just libscalar-list-utils-perl (>= 1.45) In particular, libperl5.xx is always wrong and should be transformed to 'perl' or 'perl-base' instead, with some version mangling as well. Looks like Debian::Control::FromCPAN::find_debs_for_modules() needs to be smarter about newer versions of core modules. Currently it just sees that it's not in core for the current Perl, and goes ahead to look for it in the package file lists, without giving any special handling to the src:perl packages. Sorry, no patch :) -- Niko
