Thanks a lot for the quick confirmation.

I just noticed that the issue with libbio-graphics-perl is even more
complex than just a missing Bio::Coordinate.  I noticed that other
packages that are depending from libbio-graphics-perl are failing to
build[1].  May be the only quick solution is to revert the bump of
BioPerl version for the moment (= before the next stable release of
Debian) and try upgrading later.

I'll keep you informed if I might find any problem with Bio::Coordinate.

Just for the sake of interest: Is there any specific reason to outsource
Bio::Coordinate from BioPerl?

Kind regards

       Andreas.
