Discrepancy in package libmath-bezier-perl



Hi Steffen

I was just doing some QA work for our pkg-perl packages and noticed
that there is a small discprepancy in the package libmath-bezier-perl
uploaded to the archive and the one commited to the pkg-perl
repositories:

So with a new upload in future at least the dh-make-perl template will
go away, this is fine. But I noticed another thing: During my check I
checked for packages in the pkg-perl repository with mismatching
maintainer.

Some time ago I contacted Roland (and others) already abouth this[1].
Are you interested to maintain the package under the umbrella of the
Debian Perl Group? If so it's needed for us to have the Maintainer
field to be corrected to Debian Perl Group
<pkg-perl-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org> to have the package
furthermore correctly receiving bugreports to the maintainers address.
And having added you to Uploaders.

If so could you please commit the changes to the git repository? In
other case I would like to move the package from our git repositories
into the attic/ part in say about one week timeframe.
