Hi Aaron:

I will definitely consult with upstream and fix this.

 trying to overwrite `/usr/share/perl5/WWWBrowser.pm', which is also in package 
libwwwbrowser-perl

The files in question are unsurprisingly nearly identical, with the
only real difference (apart from a missing typo fix) being to the
@unix_browsers array.  Specifically, relative to libwwwbrowser-perl
(whose list is presumably also customized), horae adds kfmclient,
misses iceape, links2, links, chimera2, arora, netsurf, and conkeror,
and reshuffles the entries somewhat.  As such, could you please
exclude WWWBrowser.pm, depend on on libwwwbrowser-perl, and (if
desired) reconcile any differences that concern you?

Thanks!

FTR, here's the precise diff from libwwwbrowser-perl 2.23-1:
