Bug#980532: libdevel-cover-perl: further reduce Build-Depends

[Helmut Grohne]

Source: libdevel-cover-perl
Version: 1.36-1
Tags: patch
User: debian-cross at lists.debian.org
Usertags: cross-satisfiability

libdevel-cover-perl has unsatisfiable cross Build-Depends. Rather than
work on this difficult problem, I looked into easily droppable
dependencies. Thankfully, a number are already annotated <!nocheck>. I
attempted to further reduce them and was surprised to see that a nocheck
build with all dependencies but perl-xs-dev and libtemplate-perl turned
into Build-Conflicts exactly reproduced the artifacts of a regular
build. That suggests that we can safely annotate them all with
<!nocheck>. Please consider applying the attached patch.
