I think you're after Roland Rosenfeld's answer about the package
renaming.  :)

I only have been involved in a couple of dpt-takeover(1) from
pkg-perl-tools, but it's a useful command to investigate too if
you have to proceed to salvaging.  I'm not sure what the best
order is, but I believe that you want to run the takeover first
and then proceed to the renaming, as otherwise the takeover
would run on a non-existing package.  But on the other hand, the
package will be pushed to its perl-team salsa location with the
old name, so in any case there will be some manual handling.

Have a nice day,  :)
