If I'm not mistaken we have: libcatalyst-perl libcgi-uploader-perl libdata-formvalidator-perl libemail-mime-perl libmail-box-perl libmime-lite-perl mime-construct which build depend on MIME::Types (and no package that Depends: on it). > Perhaps we can point to File::TypeInfo in the long description even if > there's no package for it.
