Bug#587830: libnet-sftp-foreign-perl: causes script to fail silently with exit code 0

[Cameron Matheson]

Package: libnet-sftp-foreign-perl
Version: 1.42+dfsg-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

libnet-sftp-foreign-perl doesn't work after installation.  When trying to
use this module, a perl script will fail silently (with exit code 0).  I
straced my script and was able to determine that the cause of failure was
missing dependencies.  This package should also depend on:

libio-pty-perl
libexpect-perl

libnet-sftp-foreign-perl works as expected after these packages are
installed.
