  Today I faced a similar bug: 
,---
|Can't locate Gtk.pm in @INC (@INC
|contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 
/usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 
/usr/local/lib/site_perl .)
|at /usr/bin/bins-edit-gui line 41.BEGIN failed--compilation aborted
|at /usr/bin/bins-edit-gui line 41.
`---
  which looks is caused by (the same) missing dependencies too. 

  First I would like to point out that bins is not a server, is just a
script to generate static web pages. Anyway I have to agree that probably
bins-edit-gui is not the main funcitonality of the package, but it's a
quarter of the scripts/programs provided.

  My proposal is, instead of providing it broken out of the box, why not make
a separate package with it which would carry also all the required Depends
and make bins recomend that new package?
