Description:

Opened: 2008-08-22 05:52 0000

app-arch/dpkg-1.14.19 requires the Perl Date::Parse module, in
dev-perl/TimeDate, when building a .deb package file.  Without
dev-perl/TimeDate installed:

$ dpkg-gencontrol
Can't locate Date/Parse.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl

Thanks for reporting :-)
I added dev-perl/TimeDate to RDEPEND as it's needed at runtime as you have
noticed.

Fixed in CVS.
