Hi,
I agree that CGI-modules is an illegal package name, which is
why I changed it to something else all those years ago. But the
illegal name bug can not be laid against libcgi-Perl; since it has a
legal name.
I understand that upper case names are illegal. But
CGI-modules is the name of a package that once was in Debian, so the
conflict replaces is outdated, but not "illegal" -- it is a
conflict/replace against a _real_ package name that used to be in the
archives.
Tools should be liberal in what they accept; so any tools
confused by this relationship should be fixed to not be confused by
packages having RC bugs (which would be the case if the said package
had an uppercase name). Packages do occasionally get RC
bugs. Assuming tghe world is perfect is a flaw for a tool. The tool
confused by this, as I said, needs to rid itself of the flaw.
Anyway. I'll drop the outdated relationship in the next
upload.
