libhtml-formfu-perl shipped a patched version of a buggy module, which
now got fixed, so libhtml-formfu-perl/2.06000-1 dropped that module
(MooseX::Attribute::FormFuChained) and instead added a dependency on
libmoosex-attribute-chained-perl (>= fixed_version).
libhtml-formfu-model-dbic-perl also added that dependency, and version
2.03-2 passes on debci (but old version 2.00-2 does not)
I wasn't aware of libcatalyst-controller-html-formfu-perl, for which
there is also a new version available that adds the necessary
dependency, which I wasn't aware of. I could upload the new version
tonight.
However, I'm not sure if it's enough to have a fixed set of packages in
unstable, and wait for them to eventually migrate. Or if we need a set
of Breaks (in libhtml-formfu-perl, for the old versions of
libhtml-formfu-model-dbic-perl and
libcatalyst-controller-html-formfu-perl?) or something else, for
migration to happen and partial updates / use as backport to reflect the
problem on the Debian package level?
