This package Recommends and Build-Depends-Indep on libdata-alias-perl, which
is broken with Perl 5.32 (#971969) and doesn't seem to be getting fixed.
The build dependency looks like it's optional, could we please drop it
so the relevant tests are just skipped?
Given the binary relation is just a recommendation, any packages using
the IO::Stream functionality provided by Data::Alias would
presumedly be marked as depending on both libio-stream-perl and
libdata-alias-perl. I don't see any such packages in sid so no other
packages should be affected AFAICS.
