[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#651327: ensembl: dependency from outdated libwww-perl version which conflicts with version in Debian main

[Andreas Tille]

Package: ensembl
Severity: important
Tags: experimental

Hi,

the long description of ensembl says:

 libwww-perl5.808  will conflict with the latest libwww-perl installation
 and thus force a downgrade to 5.808, which will disable many other tools
 on your system. Therefore it is advisable NOT to install this package
 in parallel with any other software, and/or use a virtual machine or
 dedicated machine.
 .
 We will work to try and remove these dependencies and allow Ensembl
 to run fully on an up-do-date machine.

Finally this perfectly describes the problem.  However, this is now
also turned into a bug report to have some record we might update to
the current status.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
