Package: bonsai
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 7.2

bonsai postinst is written in perl and uses these modules

use Crypt;
use File::Find;
use Debconf::Client::ConfModule ':all';
use DBI;

Most of them are optional

Furthermore, it can't be installed without mysql-server, which is in 
recommends, and not depends

This bug is probably related to #390325

I think all this postinst script is wrong and should be removed and even the 
package itself should be removed at least from etch (I don't know if there are 
many users, but the popcon says it has been installed 6 times)

The maintainer seems not to be very active (other bugs are 5 years old and 
tagged "help"), so I think someone else would have to take the decision to 
remove it or not.
