Seems to work (tests pass), but is noticeably slower: * without the patch dh-make-perl-dev --cpan Catalyst 29,33s user 2,30s system 94% cpu 33,473 total (second try, after one dummy to fill CPAN/dh-make-perl caches) * with the patch dh-make-perl-dev --cpan Catalyst 233,96s user 3,13s system 99% cpu 3:59,17 total (both timings were on the gregoa/apt-file-3 branch)
