Guys, I just tried to install SmokePing (1.12-3) on an unstable Debian system (have been trying for the last few weeks) but have run into some dependency issues. I know this is more a Debian issue than a SmokePing, but thought the package maintainer or someone else may have solved this problem.
Smokeping depends on speedy-cgi-perl, speedy-cgi-perl depends on perlapi-5.6.1 which does not exist! Anyone seen this and worked around it?
