--- Comment #10 from M. Tompsett <mtompset at hotmail.com> ---
Greetings,

Your testplan is flawed in that you didn't confirm there were no missing
discrepancies between CheckDependencies.pm  and the ubuntu[.blah].packages
file.

This patch should generate identical perl library output as koha_perl_deps *IF*
all the perl dependencies listed in CheckDependencies.pm are also listed in the
.packages file. Sadly, you can't just count, because sometimes multiple
libraries are contained in a single package. For example, Blah::Blah might also
be in Blah's libBlah-perl package. And the .packages files
(ubuntu.12.04.packages and ubuntu.packages) should generally be identical,
though I could see ubuntu.packages being larger as it also may have to deal
with older installations. Though, I think we've been lazy and just copying the
latest .packages file to it. :)

What you have stumbled upon is the installation mess that needs cleaning up,
and this is a tiny step towards it.

GPML...
