Bug#506697: lintian: invalid "missing-build-dependency libmodule-build-perl"



Package: lintian
Version: 2.0.0
Severity: normal

For some strange reason, the latest version of libmodule-build-perl
doesn't work for zim and thus I added a Build-Conflict to force the usage
of version of the module that is provided by perl-modules:

Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 5.0), perl-modules (>= 5.10.0) | libmodule-build-perl (>= 0.2800)
Build-Conflicts: libmodule-build-perl (>= 0.3000)

But this combination leads to lintian improperly complaining:
E: zim source: missing-build-dependency libmodule-build-perl

Not sure if the Build-Conflicts is at fault or if the change advised by
the lintian warning is the sole responsible:
W: zim source: versioned-dependency-satisfied-by-perl build-depends: libmodule-build-perl (>= 0.28)
