I think the somewhat ugly Conflicts: doc-base (== 0.10.0), doc-base (== 0.10.1), doc-base (== 0.10.2) would be the best solution here, but other ideas are welcome. Given this was only a transient sid problem in Debian, I'm leaving it up to libuuid-perl maintainers (= other pkg-perl folks) to decide if they want to include the above at all. I doubt there are many Debian users that would be affected anymore, but it might be worth it just to minimize the Ubuntu diffs. Another avenue would be that Martin try this out in Ubuntu and we merge it later? -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
