Bug#536384: perl-modules must depend on perl-base (= 5.10.0-24) or ship the changelog.Debian.gz

Package: perl-modules
Version: 5.10.0-24
Severity: serious
/usr/share/doc/perl-modules is a symlink to /usr/share/doc/perl,
and /usr/share/doc/perl/changelog.Debian.gz is shipped in the
perl-base package.
Section 12.7 of the Debian Policy Manual says:
<-- snip -->
.....
Packages that are not Debian-native must contain a compressed copy of
the `debian/changelog' file from the Debian source tree in
`/usr/share/doc/<package>' with the name `changelog.Debian.gz'.
.....
<-- snip -->
"the Debian source tree" of perl-modules 5.10.0-24 is hardly the
5.10.0-1 or 5.10.0-30 perl source tree.
