Bug#995402: libclass-dbi-sweet-perl: FTBFS: test failure

Just a recording of a failed attempt to figure out what is wrong.

The problem seems to be with an internal SQL::Abstract method that is 
used by Class::DBI::Sweet (_recurse_where), which is reworked in the 
2.0 release, so a two-level join isn't handled.

It is not clear to me whether SQL:A is to blame or C:DBI:S. Should be 
the later, since SQL:A can't actually know which class/table 
corresponds to the joined alias or how to construct the join 
expression.

Anyway, If I had to decide today what happens with the package, I'd 
consider two options: removal of the package, and removal of the 
two-level join from documentation/tests.
