Dear maintainer(s),

With a recent upload of libipc-shareable-perl the autopkgtest of inetsim 
fails in testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages 
of libipc-shareable-perl from unstable. It passes when run with only 
packages from testing. In tabular form:

                        pass            fail
libipc-shareable-perl  from testing    1.19-1
inetsim                from testing    1.3.2+dfsg.1-8
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report. The 
autopkgtest doesn't fail because the test fails, but because there's 
output on stderr. This is off course a bad sign, but maybe you didn't 
intend the test to fail on that and the allow-stderr restriction might 
be an appropriate solution (although the warnings look serious to me).

Currently this regression is blocking the migration of 
libipc-shareable-perl to testing [1]. Of course, libipc-shareable-perl 
shouldn't just break your autopkgtest (or even worse, your package), but 
it seems to me that the change in libipc-shareable-perl was intended and 
your package needs to update to the new situation.

If this is a real problem in your package (and not only in your 
autopkgtest), the right binary package(s) from libipc-shareable-perl 
should really add a versioned Breaks on the unfixed version of (one of 
your) package(s). Note: the Breaks is nice even if the issue is only in 
the autopkgtest as it helps the migration software to figure out the 
right versions to combine in the tests.
