Bug Description

imapsync should depend on libdate-manip-perl as it is a needed dependency. Also see:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=472505

DEVELOPMENT RELEASE:
This bug is fixed in the development release (intrepid) with version 1.249-1:
  * adding libdate-manip-perl dep., thanks to Javier (closes: #472505)

HOW TO REPRODUCE:
This bug can be reproduced by using imapsync with the --syncinternaldates option; this makes imapsync error out. Installing libdate-manip-perl fixes this.

POSSIBLE REGRESSIONS:
As this is an added dependency it will not pose any regressions.

SRU / PATCH:
Patch will be attached in a comment as imapsync_1.241-1ubuntu1.1.debdiff
Compiled packages with the patch can be found at: http://awen.dk/packages/imapsync/

Should be safe enough, this is fixed in Debian and Intrepid too. ACK.

Running imapsync with the --syncinternaldates fails with the following error:
Can't locate Date/Manip.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/share/imapsync/ /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/bin/imapsync line 1339.

After installing the version from -proposed it now works as expected. And imapsync seems to work as expected when using other options as well.
