Yes, my mistake (when checking for removal from unstable). Due to the API retirement, libnet-google-perl is not functional. For libwww-search-perl the dependency was dropped later on, for libperl4-caml-ocaml-dev too. What about a note for both, for the next point releases at least explaining that these subparts of both packages are not anymore functional due to the SOAP search API retired from google's side?
