Package: debfoster
Version: 2.7-2.1+b1
Severity: normal




Dear Maintainer,

I have clean installation, keepers file is updated, command "debfoster
-s" show NO packages.

Then I install package libdatetime-perl, add this package to keepers
list.

Debfoster -s shows:

        root@orion:~# debfoster -s
        The following packages have been orphaned:
          libscalar-list-utils-perl

Package lidatetime-perl depends on:


        Depends: perl (>= 5.24.1~rc4-1), perlapi-5.24.1, libc6 (>= 2.2.5),
        libdatetime-locale-perl (>= 1:1.06), libdatetime-timezone-perl (>=
        1:2.02), libnamespace-autoclean-perl (>= 0.19),
        libparams-validationcompiler-perl, libspecio-perl, libtry-tiny-perl

and package libdatetime-locale-perl depends on:

        Depends: perl, libnamespace-autoclean-perl (>= 0.19),
        libparams-validationcompiler-perl, libscalar-list-utils-perl (>=
        1:1.45) | perl (>= 5.25), libspecio-perl

so:

        libscalar-list-utils-perl (>= 1:1.45) | perl (>= 5.25)
        

I think debfoster gets confused about dependencies of such alternative.

        root@orion:~# dpkg -l | egrep '^ii  perl |libscalar-list-utils-perl'
        ii  libscalar-list-utils-perl         1:1.47-1
        ii  perl                              5.24.1-3+deb9u4
