Well, whether it was caused by placeholders or not, what we're trying to avoid these days is having the user make a choice of which -pmXXX to install. You're not supposed to have
Depends: foo-pm560 | foo-pm581
Just a remark from the sidelines about this misunderstanding: There was no "Depends: foo-pm560 | foo-pm581" here, only "Depends: foo-pm".
But in the versioned package foo-pm%type_pkg[perl] there is a
Provides: foo-pm
which has the same effect of proposing a bogus choice to the user.
This should be outlawed, too, if I understand the current version of the pm policy correctly. There are quite a few foo-pms like this.
