I see that there are some important bugs that may be related to the
Debian packaging and, in any case, the Debian packaging is quite dated.
Do you have any plans to prepare a newer version for upload?

Thanks,

Ben.

This package FTBFS with perl 5.18:

Perl module tests

Please ask [email protected] if you need help with preparing
or testing a change; if you have a suitable test i386 system you can
install perl 5.18 by adding experimental to your sources as well as the
repository at <http://people.debian.org/~dom/perl/test/perl-5.18.0/>

You can also find more about the perl 5.18 transition, which we hope
to start tomorrow[1], at <http://bugs.debian.org/712615>.

Thanks for your work!

Cheers,
Dominic.

[1] apologies for the late appearance of this bug report; earlier
test coverage did not cover this package, possibly because of issues
in build-dependencies
