Bug#559625: Lintian crashes during checking (outputs: internal error: cannot run fields check on package)
Breaking news:
Salvatore Bonaccorso (also known by his IRC nickname, carnil)
discovered that this issue is related to having perl (>= 5.10) twice
(in different instances) in B-D and B-D-I:
Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7.0.50), perl (>= 5.10) | libmodule-build-perl
Build-Depends-Indep: perl (>= 5.10), libmoosex-declare-perl, libtest-pod-perl,
If you change these fields to (note perl dropped from Build-Depends):
Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7.0.50), libmodule-build-perl
Build-Depends-Indep: perl (>= 5.10), libmoosex-declare-perl, libtest-pod-perl,
Then the lintian test completes successfully.
Hopefully this helps to track down where the bug might be.
Cheers,
Jonathan
