I sense some agitation in you, regarding this issue. There is no need for
agitation: it is your package, if you want to tag the bugreport as
wontfix, then it is your choice entirely.

However, you state in /usr/share/dh-make-perl/rules.xs, for example:

# This debian/rules file is provided as a template for normal perl
# packages. It was created by Marc Brockschmidt <marc@dch-faq.de> for
# the Debian Perl Group (http://pkg-perl.alioth.debian.org/) but may
# be used freely wherever it is useful.

The above had me thinking you intended this as a DPG tool. Thinking our
modules should be thoroughly tested before upload, I filed the wishlist
bugreport.  Please still regard this as one of my "wishes" that I place on
you "list".

If you feel the quoted text is no longer correct, please update the
templates accordingly.

Regards,
