Bug#807521: libmojolicious-perl: Consider dropping Recommends: libev-perl

Thu Dec 10 00:13:10 UTC 2015

Package: libmojolicious-perl
Version: 6.15+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist

The new version of libnet-mac-vendor-perl depends on libmojolicious-perl (for
Mojo::UserAgent).  This brings in libev-perl, which causes Apache to segfault
on startup.  libev-perl upstream is disinclined to address the issue.

The end result is that mod_perl webapps which display MAC address vendor 
information now result in mysterious startup segfults in Apache.

Considering this, perhaps libmojolicious-perl should not Recommend: 
libev-perl?
