dh-make-perl on HTML::Widget fails

[asjo@koldfront.dk (Adam Sjøgren)]

  Hi.


[I hope it is okay to ask this here; feel free to direct/correct me.]

I'm trying to roll my own libhtml-widget-perl using dh-make-perl, but
I get this odd error:

 $ dh-make-perl --build --cpan HTML::Widget
 [...]
 HTML-Widget-1.03/t/filter_trimedges.t
 HTML-Widget-1.03/t/filter_uppercase.t
 HTML-Widget-1.03/t/filter_whitespace.t

         (Do you need to predeclare name?)

 ear "name 'HTML-Widget'"
 Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/perl5/Module/Depends/Intrusive.pm li
 ne 76.

If I thereafter go to the source-directory and manually execute "perl
Makefile.PL", I do not get any errors:

 $ perl Makefile.PL 
 Cannot determine perl version info from lib/HTML/Widget.pm

 Looks good

I'm not quite sure what to make of the error/how to fix/debug it, any
pointers/ideas?


  Best regards,
