Piotr, Please ignore everything I've said in this whole discussion. I was arguing without checking things, and I was way wrong.
While I would have sworn that at one time libcgi-perl included CGI.pm, it certainly doesn't now. This suggests that we either need a package that includes it---and I would argue with Manoj that that would have to be libcgi-perl, since there are already packages out there that (I suspect) mistakenly have dependencies on it---or our heroic perl maintainers need to take the tiger by the tail and update the perl sources with the new version. Chip: I haven't been following p5p closely the last few months---any particular reason CGI.pm hasn't been updated that you know of? Mike.
