dpkg -S is your friend here.
It is in netbase and is installed in /usr/lib/perl5/. The problem appears
to be that @INC doesn't include that path:
Can't locate DebianNet.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
/usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.005 /usr/lib/perl5/5.005
/usr/local/lib/site_perl/i386-linux /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at
/usr/sbin/update-inetd line 23.
I copied this file to a directory which is in the @INC path and was able
to install the netstd upgrade. I had a similar problem with tetex-base
and tetex-bin not installing because of the @INC path not containing
Dpkg/Package/List.pm
Bug #27604 has been filed on this and is marked as critical, so it has a
high priority for being fixed, but you might try the workaround I
described above.
