reassign 548848 debhelper
thanks

The problem here is that liblocale-gettext-perl, which is transitively
essential, now pre-depends: perl instead of perl-base.  This is a behavior
change in dh_perl from debhelper; it now causes all perl-using packages to
depend on perl, when for /usr/bin/perl perl-base should be sufficient.

Since the perl/perl-base split exists /for the benefit of/ the essential
closure, this needs to be fixed in either debhelper or, if debhelper's
behavior is for some reason considered correct, in liblocale-gettext-perl
(by overriding debhelper).
