I fixed that by downloading the source (apt-get source eperl) and building a replacement for eperl (dpkg-source -x eperl_2.2.14-0.5.dsc, cd eperl-2.2.14, dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc). To get it to build the deb properly, I had to edit the rules script (eperl-2.2.14/debian/rules) and comment out a line that was allegedly a hack to get around a problem with dh_compress (which was working fine).
