This doesn't work for me, since perl-modules 5.18 provides
libmodule-pluggable-perl (so the separate package doesn't get
installed and the warning persists, leading to the test failure).

What works for me is:
libmodule-pluggable-perl (>= 0) | perl (<< 5.17.0)

Not sure if this is a cowbuilder oddity; might be different in
sbuilder ...

I'm commiting this now but will wait with an upload. 

Cheers,
gregor
