That's one side of the problem, that you solved.

No I did not update it first, because it was hold back and I manually installed
libopen4-ruby1.8 first (to examine, which packages are hold back for Perl 5.10
transition). So I did run into the problem, because libopen4-ruby1.8 missed to
declare the open4.rb replacement accordingly to section 7.5(.1) of the Debian
policy.
Package: libopen4-ruby1.8
[..]
Replaces: libcommandline-ruby1.8 (<< 0.7.10-10)
should solve this finally.
