I put 'perl Makefile.PL' at the top of debian/rules
(e.g. before '#!/usr/bin/make -f') and it seemed to
work as expected.  However, it failed with this error:

debian/rules: line 15: syntax error near unexpected
token `,$(findstring debug,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS))'
debian/rules: line 15: `ifneq (,$(findstring
debug,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS)))'
debuild: fatal error at line 456:
dpkg-buildpackage failed!

I'm running unstable -- is this a problem with an out
of date package or is it something else?

Thanks,

Dan
