@resource-agents maintainers: I suggest you create a bug in the BTS that
you can close with your upload to document the discussion. Forwarding
this e-mail with something like at the beginning:
Package: ldirectord
Version: 1:4.1.1-1
Severity: serious
Control: affects -1 src:libnet-dns-perl
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: needs-update

@libnet-dns-perl maintainers: I suggest you add a "Breaks" on the
current-or-older version of ldirectord to record this behavior. The
migration software should then pick up the right packages to test for
migration.
