Yes, it is one of 3 (or so) "Debian-specific" perl modules we use in
Lintian. From the looks of it, we use
* Dpkg::Vendor and Dpkg::Version
(From the libdpkg-perl Debian package, source dpkg)
* Parse::DebianChangelog
(From the libparse-debianchangelog-perl Debian package)
* AptPkg::Config
(from libapt-pkg-perl Debian package)
To my knowledge none of these are readily available outside Debian (at
least I cannot see them on CPAN).

Right. If the AptPkg module is the only thing you are missing, then I
can have Lintian use Dpkg::Version as a fallback to replace it. But
that won't help you if you are also missing Dpkg::Version (or some other
module).

Sorry to hear that, but thanks for trying. Please do let us know if
there is something we can do to help you in this area. :)
