Description:
irssi comes with /usr/share/irssi/scripts/scriptassist.pl which has a dependency on perl-libwww.

It's possible that other scripts are in the same boat but not tested.
If scripts are included, their dependencies should be included as well.

Maybe a post-install message..

I disagree. These (and this particular one) are not core functionality scripts, and I sure haven't run into this trouble, so maybe an optdepend but definitely not a depend.

Yeah it should be an optdepends

Doing:
grep "^use" /usr/share/irssi/scripts
make me think this is the only script with this issue. I am pushing a rebuild with this as an optdep.
