Perl problem




Hello,

I'm applying for maintainership and am in the process of preparing
a few .deb-s. These are (currently) only Perl modules wrapped for
Debian usage. There is a problem with two of them I don't understand:

1. libimage-size-perl:
Lintian says:
W: libimage-size-perl: perl-script-uses-unknown-module ./usr/lib/perl5/Image/Size.pm use File::Spec

I have a corresponding libfile-spec-perl and also mentioned this
in control/Depends.


2. libdbi-perl:

(I know this is maintained by Christian Hammers, not me, but I had
to adjust a tiny bit, and also wanted to be able to sign it)

Lintian says:

W: libdbi-perl: perl-script-uses-unknown-module ./usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux/DBI/ProxyServer.pm use RPC::PlServer 0.2001
W: libdbi-perl: perl-script-uses-unknown-module ./usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux/DBD/Proxy.pm use RPC::PlClient 0.2000
W: libdbi-perl: perl-script-uses-unknown-module ./usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux/DBD/ADO.pm require Win32::OLE
W: libdbi-perl: perl-script-uses-unknown-module ./usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux/DBD/ADO.pm require Win32::OLE::Const
W: libdbi-perl: perl-script-uses-unknown-module ./usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux/DBD/ADO.pm require Win32::OLE::Variant
W: libdbi-perl: perl-script-uses-unknown-module ./usr/bin/dbiproxy require RPC::PlServer::Test

but w/o me doing much on this one...

My (wild) guess is that the mentioned modules are not available as
stand-alone modules and can therefore not be checked by the
package management system which lintian belongs to.


I'd like advice on how I can find what's going wrong here.

The whole stuff can be downloaded at

http://www.tonimueller.org/download/debian/ (apt-get'able)
if anyone wants to peek into this.


Thank you!


Best Regards,
