After a quick look at the packages it seems that: * the description of libauthen-simple-perl should be adjusted (either shortened or extended to all possible Authen::Simple adapters) * the "depends:" should list libauthen-simple-FOO-perl | libauthen-simple-BAR-perl | ... (or "suggests:"? "recommends:"?) I'd go for "recommends:" because the other packages are not thecnically necessary but libauthen-simple-perl is useless without them * currently we have 5 adapters in the svn repository: libauthen-simple-http-perl, libauthen-simple-pam-perl, libauthen-simple-kerberos-perl, libauthen-simple-passwd-perl, libauthen-simple-smb-perl * one of them (libauthen-simple-kerberos-perl) is not uploaded to the archive For the time being I've changed the long description and added the Recommends: field in svn. Any thoughts?
