The problem here is that dpkg doesn't support versioned provides.
If you install libgnome-perl you have a virtual libgtk-imlib-perl
on your system. However since virtual packages don't have versions
dpkg cannot satisfy the versioned dependency that econfigedit apparently
has it complains.

Just a quick inquiry --
Why is it that we exclude /usr/etc from our distribution? FHS and FSSTND
allow it, even encourage it. It seems like a perfectly reasonable
arrangement to me Anything that's not needed for critical functionality
(recovery purposes) is supposed to live on the /usr parti

Now that you mention it, I did the same thing and got the same
result. However, my upgrade worked.
apt-get dist-upgrade' does /not/ upgrade perl from 5.004 to 5.005
for the same reason it won't upgrade emacs19 to emacs20. They
are different packages. The package is perl-5.005_5.005.03 and
