syntax error at (eval 13) line 1, near "Debian::ExtRepo::Commands::--"
...propagated at /usr/bin/extrepo line 123.
$ extrepo help
Undefined subroutine &Debian::ExtRepo::Commands::Help::run called at (eval 13)
line 1.

--8<--
Firstly, the syntax error is somewhat unseemly. The second, is that, typically
for a command with sub-commands, 'help' is usually an useful subcommand. Also,
often, help on subcommands is found on one or both of:
extrepo help search
extrepo search --help
Neither of with has useful behaviour,
--8<--
$ extrepo help search
Undefined subroutine &Debian::ExtRepo::Commands::Help::run called at (eval 13)
line 1.
...propagated at /usr/bin/extrepo line 123.
$ extrepo search --help
No matches found for --help
