You're right, "depends-on-essential-package-without-using-version" it is. Perhaps the best would be to Depend on "${perl:Depends}". For "jarwrapper" it expands to empty string. Also "${perl:Depends}" is missing from javahelper's Depends where (if added) it expands to "perl". I'll add "${perl:Depends}" to Depends of javahelper as the latter is actually using Perl scripts. -- All the best, Dmitry Smirnov.
