Hi Emilio, I am glad you like it :)

I used it for three of my packages:

http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/libb/libbio-primerdesigner-perl/current/copyright
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/libb/libbio-graphics-perl/current/copyright
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/non-free/libm/libmath-random-perl/current/copyright

I am really looking for something as simple as the WTFPL license, but without
the aggressive wording. The IETF text proposed by Russ or the CC0 license are
probably more correct from a legal point of view, but each time I read such 
text,
I feel so bored...

Have a nice day,

 I try to refresh my control and rules files with latest versions of
 dh-make-perl when I upload new upstream releases. Be sure that this
 depenancy will be removed after the patches that you will send to the
 Policy and to dh-make-perl will be accepted.

Contacted -policy and -perl first.

 Yeah, absolutely.  Could you file a bug against debian-policy so that I
 don't lose track of this before I get a chance to do it?

Sure. #525190 (-policy received the bugreport, dropping it; adding the
initial bugreport).

Dear all,

I have packaged a new CPAN module, MappedQueryDB, that will be used by another
software that I intend to package, EdgeExpressDB (more info in its ITP, that I
will post soon).

I will maintain the source package in the pkg-perl Alioth group.

 MQdb.pm is a base toolkit for working with relational databases in the
 context of a federation of object databases. It provides some base federation
 support and a variation on an Object-relational-mapped template model.

Well.

One:
| $ rmadison -s oldstable perl
| perl | 5.8.8-7etch6 | oldstable | source, alpha, amd64, arm, hppa, 
i386, ia64, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390, sparc

Two, grepping debhelper's history:
| +# the installation dir for arch-indep modules changed to
| +# /usr/share/perl5 in this version:
| +my $min_version = '5.6.0-16';

Looks like it?
| commit b352136551fb3384722942f0206419ca066dedda
| Author: joey joey
| Date:   Wed Apr 25 17:01:49 2001 +
  
some years ago…
| 
| r463:* dh_perl: updates from bod:
|  - Provide minimum version for arch-indep module dependencies
|(perl-policy 1,18, section 3.4.1).
|  - Always update substvars, even if Perl:Depends is empty.

Also, you already have perl-base and perl-modules, that might look like
sufficient? (And perl through debhelper anyway.)

KiBi.

Hi Adeodato,

I thought so, since anyway in many countries one can not abandon his rights
and put his work under the public domain.

But if there is a problem, I will fall back on the poetic license:
