Package: liblwp-protocol-http-socketunix-perl
Version: 0.02-4
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream

Hi!

The module has been broken for a long long time, it tries to
unconditionally use LWP::Debug::trace which has been remove from LWP.

The attached reproducer shows the problem.

There is a forked and working version in
LWP::Protocol::http::SocketUnixAlt, I suggest packaging that and
removing liblwp-protocol-http-socketunix-perl from Debian.

Grüße,
Sven.
