The dependency needs to go in lbdata-dump-streamer-perl.
>From the documentation:
If PadWalker 1.0 is installed you can use DumpLex() to try to
automatically determine the names of the vars being dumped. As
long as the vars being dumped have my or our declarations in scope
the vars will be correctly named. Padwalker will also be used
instead of the B:: modules when dumping closures when it is available.
So I suppose the B:: modules have become incompatible, and
Data::Dump::Streamer no longer works without PadWalker. The package
currently Recommends: libpadwalker-perl, so just upgrading that should
be enough to fix the immediate problem.
