That one looks like a module that is only usable by the application. I
would consider this module being part of the application (i.e. not
deserving separate libapp-ack package etc).

OTOH, I wonder how bad would it be to have this package in pkg-perl?
Yes, it does not fit into the declared goals, but how much a perl-based
application is different to a perl module in regards to packaging?

It would be interesting to hear other's opinion about this.
