For what it's worth I've been using cdbs with a debian dir left in the cpan .tar.gz (eg. Gtk2::Ex::Clock for a simple example), which means "fakeroot debian/rules binary" builds from the tar. (Latest cdbs introduces a pointless renaming of the perl .mk files designed to be incompatible with older debian, but that can be ignored.) dh-make-perl can be persuaded to give reasonable output but you probably want to massage the description fields and probably the dependencies list too. (It also like to generate debhelper 7 format to limit backward compatibility.) I tried cpan2deb but it seemed to end up with slightly different layout than native debian packages. Perhaps that's changed by now. _______________________________________________ gtk-perl-list mailing list gtk-perl-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
