Package: perl-modules
Version: 5.20.2-6
Severity: normal

Installing linux-image-amd64 currently results in this:

The following extra packages will be installed:
  busybox firmware-linux-free initramfs-tools irqbalance klibc-utils
  libalgorithm-c3-perl libarchive-extract-perl libb-hooks-endofscope-perl
  libb-hooks-op-check-perl libbareword-filehandles-perl libcap-ng0

  libtimedate-perl libtry-tiny-perl libtype-tiny-perl libtype-tiny-xs-perl
  libunicode-utf8-perl liburi-perl libvariable-magic-perl libxml2 linux-base
  linux-image-4.1.0-2-amd64 perl perl-modules rename sgml-base
  shared-mime-info xdg-user-dirs xml-core

Rather a lot of this mess is modules that perl-modules recommends because they
were removed from it. Since this happened some time (and over a release) ago,
removing those recommends would decrease bloat.
