Package: libfile-slurp-perl Version: 9999.19-2 Severity: minor It's very nice to be able to apt-cache search for the Perl module name (File::Slurp, in this case) and have it be able to find the corresponding Debian package. It helps users who don't know the naming scheme, and I (even knowing the naming scheme) tend to do this all the time because it finds modules in packages that have different names for some reason (maybe the module is part of a larger distribution).
Could you add File::Slurp somewhere to the long description to enable this? Usually what Perl module packagers do is put it at the start of the description. So, for example, saying: File::Slurp consists of some quickie routines that read... instead of the current "This module consists of...."
