Thanks. I guess that would have avoided the xvfb/fakeroot problems.

s/CPAN modules/all Debian packages/ :)

Maybe we can change dh-make-perl to declare the top-level targets in 
debian/rules as phony. something like:

 #!/usr/bin/make -f

 DEBIAN_TARGETS := clean binary binary-arch binary-indep build

 .PHONY: $(DEBIAN_TARGETS)

 $(DEBIAN_TARGETS):
    dh $@

(this is what I used for libwx-perl anyway)
