Package: debhelper
Version: 9.20120909
Severity: important
Tags: patch
The command:
dh-make-perl --dist wheezy --cpan POE::Component::SNMP --install
generates .deb that installs the module under $HOME/usr/share/perl/ instead of
/usr/share/perl.
This looks similar to #517423 but for modules using MakeMaker to build. Adding
"INSTALL_BASE=" parameter to Makefile.PL invocation in
/usr/share/perl5/Debian/Debhelper/Buildsystem/perl_makemaker.pm fixes the
problem (patch attached).

Hi,
It was tried and reverted as it broke other packages.
In the mean time, dh-make-perl now detects this case and warns when it
notices the problem. To my knowledge, this is the best we can achieve
at the moment and I am therefore closing this bug. Should the situation
change, please filing a new bug (against debhelper or dh-make-perl
depending on where the situation can be improved).
Thanks,
~Niels
