Problem - dselect can't handle perl-5.004 with perl-5.005-doc
The perl-5.004 package Recommends: perl-5.004-doc; the perl-5.005
package Recommends: perl-5.005-doc. Dselect in all its evilness will
automatically select Recommended packages. Thus if perl-5.005 and
perl-5.004 are installed it selects both doc packages, and notices they
conflict, and tries to install one perl or the other. Perhaps
perl-5.004-doc should be downgraded to a Suggest:?
