Bug Description

Binary package hint: libauthen-simple-pam-perl

libauthen-simple-pam-perl needs to Depend on libauthen-simple-perl. If you create a small simple script and run it without libauthen-simple-perl, you get the following error message:

  Base class package "Authen::Simple::Adapter" is empty.
      (Perhaps you need to 'use' the module which defines that package first.)
   at /usr/share/perl5/Authen/Simple/PAM.pm line 5
  BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/Authen/Simple/PAM.pm line 5.
  Compilation failed in require at pam-simple.plx line 1.
  BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at pam-simple.plx line 1.

Installing libauthen-simple-perl solves the problem. libauthen-simple-pam-perl appears useless without libauthen-simple-perl, so libauthen-simple-perl should be a dependency. All of the other libauthen-simple-*-perl packages correctly depend on libauthen-simple-perl.
