Public bug reported: When trying to use d-m-p in Oneiric I get the following error:
philsf@philsf-workstation:~/doutorado/projetos/trepid/trunk/TRepid-0.9.1$ dh-make-perl -p trepid Using META.yml Found: TRepid 0.9.1 (trepid arch=all) Using cached Contents from Wed Jan 4 16:12:11 2012 Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /usr/share/perl5/Debian/WNPP/Query.pm line 75. This bug was recently fixed in debian, and the specific patch is available in (also attached): http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-perl/packages/dh-make-perl.git;a=commit;h=dff932cc4fc852542dd1821449b3e659c46f1a0a Additionally, if (or when) ubuntu syncs with debian for version 0.74 it will also break because of a change in apt-file from debian that was reverted in ubuntu, which makes dependencies not locatable. Here's a transcript of a short summary of the issue regarding apt-file as discussed in #debian-perl in OFTC: <gregoa> maybe nhandler (both active in ubuntu and in our group) can help here. <gregoa> nhandler: short summary: dh-make-perl 0.74 will have a problem in ubuntu because it was adjusted to apt-file 2.5.0 in debian, and ubuntu has reverted this apt-file change (location/name of Contents files) <gregoa> nhandler: if this difference in apt-file persists, dh-make-perl needs to revert the relevant commits in ubuntu too <ansgar> Or it needs to look in both locations.
