reopen #482278
thanks
Please, read the bug report before closing it.
In the archive, we have a libtext-csv-perl package. But it's name is incorrect.
It should be libtext-csv-xs-perl.
According to discussion on the pkg-perl-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org ML,
the current libtext-csv-perl will be renamed to libtext-csv-xs-perl
(it packages the Text::CSV_XS CPAN perl module)
And a new libtext-csv-perl will be uploaded with the Text::CSV CPAN perl module.
This will be the first time this software will be in Debian, hence this ITP.
Regards,
Vincent
