Description Mark Hatle 2011-10-06 12:27:23 UTC 
In deb and ipkg packages we currently ignore the per-file dependencies.  We should be able to use these dependencies (as appropriate) in deb and ipkg package generation.

In general they do not allow "file" based dependencies, but we may be able to extract specific known file combinations (like /usr/bin/perl) to a generic perl dependency.
