That won't be very accurate. For example, searching for DBIx::Class
would not only install libdbix-class-perl but also
libdbix-class-schema-loader-perl and several others.
apt-file search -l DBIx/Class.pm would not be correct either, because
there is /usr/share/perl5/Catalyst/Authentication/Store/DBIx/Class.pm in
libcatalyst-modules-perl.
apt-file search -l /usr/share/perl5/DBIx/Class.pm is correct, but
cumbersome and ignores possible XS modules.
The only proper way I know of is
dh-make-perl locate DBIx::Class
but having to install a developer tool first is hardly user friendly.
