How does it deal with dependecies in Makefile.PL? One advantage of using debian packages as perl modules seems like upgrades to the packages can be handled by apt. (dist-upgrade, for example). But what's the advantage of downloading a CPAN module and building a .deb over just perl -MCPAN 'install foo'? -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
