Sorry about this.
On stretch:
perl -we 'use Dpkg::Source::Package; my $x = new Dpkg::Compression::Process'
On sid (libdpkg-perl 1.19.0.3):
(build)ian@zealot:~$ perl -we 'use Dpkg::Source::Package; my $x = new Dpkg::Compression::Process'
Can't locate object method "new" via package "Dpkg::Compression::Process" (perhaps you forgot to load "Dpkg::Compression::Process"?) at -e line 1.
Sadly I am not aware of a good way of detecting missing `use'
direcctives other than waiting for things to break when an implicitly
loaded module is no longer loaded.
There will be an update very shortly.
Ian.
