Bug#603251: libsys-syslog-perl: obsoleted by perl in squeeze

Package: libsys-syslog-perl
Version: 0.27-1
Severity: serious

There's no use in shipping this duplicate copy of Sys::Syslog in squeeze
as there's the same version in perl core.

I don't see any versioned dependencies in the archive. So I think this
package could be removed from testing with no ill effects.

There's debian/patches/fix-man-page-line-too-long.patch that's not in
the core version, but I don't think that's a big loss. Upstreaming it
would be good of course.
