Adduser and Perl dependancy

["Stephen R. Gore" <sgore@ev1.net>]

Just trying to help out a user who was having probs with adduser, and
noticed that adduser doesn't depend on anything but passwd, which only
depends on libc6, which predepends on ldso, which doesn't list any
type of dependancy.  Nowhere is perl listed as a depends.  But adduser
(AFAICT) is a perl script...

Can anyone shed some light on this?

(btw, this is on i386 potato)
