Source: findimagedupes
Version: 2.18-5
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Hi!

findimagedupes Build-Depends: libinline-c-perl | libinline-perl (<< 0.57~)

However, there is no "libinline-c-perl" in sid, and buildds ignore
all but the first part of alternative dependencies (why, I have never
understood, since this is counter-productive… additionally, wanna-build
does not, so the buildds are churning trying to autobuild this package
but failing to install its Build-Dependencies).

You need to reverse the order of the alternatives, like so:

Build-Depends: libinline-perl (<< 0.57~) | libinline-c-perl

At least until libinline-c-perl is in sid (I have not seen it yet).
