Hello,

grep-excuses requires that libterm-size-perl (which contains Term/Size.pm) is 
installed to work:
> $ grep-excuses
> Can't locate Term/Size.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl
> /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5
> /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8
> /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/bin/grep-excuses line 27. BEGIN
> failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/grep-excuses line 27.

However, devscripts' description only lists wget as dependency for 
grep-excuses. Please update the description with the attached patch.

Thanks,
Frank
