As I see it, adding and maintaining a line to 2000+ debian/rules files is a bit of a burden. Not an unbearable one, but we embraced the tiny dh rules exactly because they made things really simple. > Presumably Debian's version uses a patched version of EU-MM, which was > required before this option was available. I wonder if debhelper would be the right place to add this. This would solve the problem this patch solves, and maybe also simplify the patch in the perl package package [1] [1] https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/perl/perl.git/tree/debian/patches/debian/no_packlist_perllocal.diff
