I believe it both Replaces libmodern-perl (that means files in libmodern-perl-perl overwrite ones in libmodern-perl) and Provides libmodern-perl (ie, a virtual package). Depending on what is needed, transitional empty binary packages may be needed as well. But if there are no reverse deps we don't need to bother with any of that, simply removing libmodern-perl should be good.. > > -- > _ivan > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
