Comment 27 for bug 2023971

Regarding the debate about libmime-tools-perl vs libemail-mime-perl, I checked that libemail-mime-perl is not being used in the last version of spamassassin directly:

https://salsa.debian.org/debian/spamassassin/-/blob/master/debian/control?ref_type=heads

Also, using the example of dmarc_receive in the previous comment, using libmime-tools-perl is enough to make it work but, if we use libemail-mime-perl, we would need to MIRs :
  - libdbd-sqlite3-perl bug 2029379 : ready for promotion
  - libdbix-simple-perl bug 2030731: needs to move some dependencies from Recommends to Suggests for unblock the MIR and check usability

I checked it by using libemail-mime-perl as suggested in dmarc's dependencies - it was one of the last checks I did for validating the change to libmime-tools-perl before libemail-mime-perl passed the security review-. I had to install by hand all that is needed to run the dmarc_receive tool (the libdb* packages above).

I'm not saying it's time to review all the binary Perl scripts since they were considered outside the validation feature of DMARC and are not in use by spamassassin, but it's a minor collateral win that some of them could work, too, with the changes already made to the dmarc Perl package.
