Hi,
Your package fails to build with perl 5.10 from experimental:
...
Devel::Cover 0.61 has not been tested with perl 5.010000.
Testing will take place against expected output from perl 5.008008.
You may well find failing tests.

187.
Perhaps this should be checked with upstream.
Also, debian/rules contains the wollowing in its install-stamp taget:
rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty --parents $(TMP)/usr/share/perl5
This is doomed to fail with perl 5.10 as MakeMaker that is shipped with
perl5.10 finally stops creating the spurious usr/{share,lib}/perl5
directories.
Please change the removal line to
[ ! -d $(TMP)/usr/share/perl5 ] || rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty --parents --verbose $(TMP)/usr/share/perl5
Thanks,
dam
P.S. shameless plug: if you don't want to bother, please consider
giving[1] the package to the Debian Perl Group.
