Hi, I looked at your package and have following comments and suggestions:
- The Build-Depends should be on debhelper (>= 3.0.18) per policy. - Why is there an empty /usr/lib/perl5 directory in your package? - Please remove the 'local' at the bottom of the changelog (using the dpkg-dev-el package automatically takes care of this). - The debian/rules is not in accordance with the Perl Policy, e.g you shouldn't define PERL, the 'make install' contains more than necessary, the 'make' shouldn't define the LD_RUN_PATH, you define INSTALLDIRS=perl5 but you don't use it, etc. I would suggest to take a look at one of my packages for ideas. - You should also install the upstream Changes. - Please also consider to install the README for completeness. By the way, is this a Debian only package? I noticed you had the debian directory in the .orig.tar.gz file and als a diff file.
