This script fails to compile due without Mail::Box::Manager installed:
Can't locate Mail/Box/Manager.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl
/usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5

/usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/bin/podebconf-report-po line 1144.
The intention of the code in question is to test for the existence of
the module and then exit gracefully if it is not found, but this does
not take account of the fact that the 'use' line is interpreted at compile
time, unconditionally.
Removing the 'use' line fixes the problem:
