Warning:
Presence of this package breaks compilation of some packages that depend on proj (e.g. libosmium and osm2pgsql, even if another up-to-date proj is installed). So be really careful about installing it.

I have removed the dependency of perl-gis-distance-git on perl-geo-point (seems to be an optional dependency, at least for the functionality used by perl-travel-status-de-iris-git), so the dependency chain stops there and libproj4-projcompathack seems not to be needed anymore for packages that depend on perl-gis-distance.

This package was made to satisfy perl-geo-proj4. I know that it does not really work, but at least the dependency chain starting from perl-travel-status-de-iris-git now works, and perl-travel-status-de-iris-git itself does work, seems not to really need the stuff here except for (stale?) dependencies.
