Without this dependency, if you don't happen to already have perl (and not just perl-base) installed, installation fails, as shown by the piuparts log file snippet below. This is admittedly an unusual scenario, but it is possible, and violates a release criterion (see http://release.debian.org/etch_rc_policy.txt, point 2, "Dependencies"). 0m9.3s ERROR: Command failed (status=25600): "chroot /tmp/tmpak7UFJ apt-get -y install 'vrms'" Reading package lists...
