Shouldn't this simply have been done as a binNMU?  Alternatively, should
ilbemperl-perl have a versioned dependency on apache2, instead of just a
recommends?

Also, your NMU seems to have introduced some cruft (at least, this change
isn't documented in the changelog):

--- libembperl-perl-2.2.0.orig/dbinitembperlapache
+++ libembperl-perl-2.2.0/dbinitembperlapache
@@ -0,0 +1,3 @@
+set args -X -f /tmp/libembperl-perl-2.2.0/test/conf/httpd.conf
+r
+BT

Please fix this latter bit.

Thanks,
