I somehow missed this transitional dependency when looking at why the package hadn't been installed on one of my machines. Sorry for the noise.
Bug#853295: git-buildpackage should recommend or suggest libdistro-info-perl
Package: git-buildpackage Version: 0.6.22 Severity: normal Dear Guido, thank you for maintaining git-buildpackage. I noticed that git-dch uses functionality from libdistro-info-perl. Wouldn't it be a good idea to either recommend or suggest the package?
