Package: libdbi-perl
Version: 1.610.90+is+1.609-1
Severity: wishlist
DBI-1.611 has been released.
Looking at the diff from 1.610.90, upstream has reverted the
DBISTATE_VERSION bump, so this should be binary compatible with 1.609
and the perldbdabi-* dependencies aren't required for all the DBD::*
modules quite yet.
It would probably still be a good idea to check that the libdbd-*-perl
packages still work before uploading.
