As I understand it, the idea was to keep it as metapackage that pulls
in the now separately packaged parts on upgrades.
Otherwise people upgrading to jessie will probably have quite broken
catalyst applications until they find out which packages they need to
install now separately instead of the bundled old
libcatalyst-modules-perl.


Dam might have more thoughts on history and future of this package.
