Bug#719593: libmongodb-perl: FTBFS on !(amd64 | i386): missing mongodb build-dependency

Package: libmongodb-perl
Version: 0.700.0-1 
Severity: serious

This package is not migrating into testing because of missing
builds on most architectures.

This is because 0.700.0-1 added a build dependency on mongodb-server,
which is only available on i386 and amd64.

Either the test suite needs to be made optional somehow, or the old
binaries need to be removed from testing.

I suppose the choice depends on whether libmongodb-perl can be used over
the network.  If it's only for local use, it doesn't make much sense to
ship it on architectures where mongodb-server isn't available,
