Ok, I finally got to it, and I suppose I will upload it today. Just
FYI, it is Lintian-clean, but Linda still complains:
W: libperl6-slurp-perl; Module package has no dependancy on perl or perl-base.
The module package shown does not have a dependancy on perl or perl-
base. Perl may be marked Essential, but a dependancy is still required
on it, according to Policy.
I am not changing your packaging, however - Linda wants it to depend
on Perl, but it _does_ depend (and build-depend) on
libperl6-export-perl, which depends on perl-modules, which depends on
perl. Does anybody disagree with this?
Now, I see your module does still not have an ITP bug. I am filing it
(and closing it in the changelog).
