Description-en: helper for creating Debian packages from perl modules
dh-make-perl will create the files required to build a Debian source
package out of a perl package. This works for most simple packages
and is also useful for getting started with packaging perl modules.
Given a perl package name, it can also automatically download it from
CPAN.
.
dh-make-perl can also help keeping the debian/ content current when upstream
dependencies or Debian practices change. It can also help improve existing
Perl module packages.
.
Includes the cpan2deb and cpan2dsc flavours.
