Bug#924143: www.debian.org: debian.org metapackage: add dependency for Locale::Codes



Package: www.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: www.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: scripts

Hi,

While working on rebuilding the website within stretch and buster, I've
noticed the following.

When building on buster, the Perl upgrade changes at least one thing:
one needs to install an extra package to get the Locale::Codes module.
It used to be shipped under perl-modules, but now has its own separate
package.

In stretch, it's provided by:
  perl-modules
  perl-modules-5.24

In testing/sid, it's shipped in:
  liblocale-codes-perl | 3.59-1        | testing    | source, all
  liblocale-codes-perl | 3.60-1        | unstable   | source, all

so it looks to me the debian.org metapackage could gain a dependency
like the following, to ensure the extra package gets installed when
moving to buster?

  liblocale-codes-perl | perl-modules-5.24

which should be installable in stretch and allowing a transition to
the real package (liblocale-codes-perl) when the host gets dist
upgraded to buster?


Cheers,
