So, it looks like Scalar::Does (in libscalar-does-perl) needs
Exporter::TypeTiny, which _was_ in libtype-tiny-perl but is gone
since 0.042 there. (Or 0.039_01, according to the upstream changlog.)

And then we have
+0.029_01       2013-09-26
+
+ - Replace Exporter::TypeTiny with Exporter::Tiny (an external dependency).

And Scalar::Does says:

+0.201  2013-09-30
+ - Updated: Use Exporter::Tiny instead of Exporter::TypeTiny.

Unfortunately we still have 0.200 in Debian.
On the bright side, we know what to do :)


Cheers,
gregor
