Source: dpkg Severity: wishlist Hi,
as of today it's not possible to use the perl-libraries in the Dpkg:: namespace on systems other then Debian (except someone packaged them for the target system, like it has been done in Fedora). Since the perl ecosystem does have it's own platform for modules with it's own tooling (which we as a distribution happily benefit from, when packaing perl modules), it would be very nice if Debian made their own libraries available on CPAN, too. Some Debian projects already do, unfortunately dpkg is a prime example where it could be useful to other people.
