we do not depend on libpve-rs-perl in libpve-common-perl, and if easily possible
I'd strongly favor keeping it that way, bootstrapping and handling bigger package
bumps with newer versioned dependencies or break/depends bumps is already quite
a bit of work as is, such stuff does not make it easier, especially if adding
a new dependencies is not recorded in d/control's packaging definition.

Can this move to some non-leaf package instead? Where are the users of this, only
qemu-server or other too (pve-manager?)?
