Package: perl-base
Version: 5.8.7-10
Severity: important

Overload.pm is no more in perl-base - it seems to be needed in some
debconf-stuff.

This is from a pretty clean sid chroot. debootstrap sarge + upgrade + 
installing vim & sudo

Installing perl-base from testing or perl from unstable makes things work. 
looks like overload.pm has been moved from perl-base to perl - this might not 
be good.
