Sounds like you want 'dh-make-perl' You can do, e.g. dh-make-perl --build --cpan Module::Name which will build you a deb of that module, which you can then install. Remember that there are prebuilt Perl module packages for many modules. Normally, they are called libmodulename-perl, or something like that. Do an 'apt-cache search' to check whether anything pre-exists. Dave. -- Please don't CC me on list messages! ...
