Subject: New perl packages conflict...
Reply-to: vizzie@airmail.net

From: "Larry 'Daffy' Daffner"
Package: perl-base
Version: 5.003.07-2
perl-base and perl should conflict with each other, as they contain
many of the same files (and thus try to overwrite each other.) It
should also be made more clear that perl-base is a subset of perl,
rather than a division.
