Thanks for checking this.  I've added "dh_perl -V" to debian/rules, to
add a perl dependency.  However, this adds a strict dependency on
"perl (>= 5.8.4-8)", rather than just "perl (>= 5.8)", which may cause
problems with testing migration in the future.  Is "dh_perl -V" OK in
this situation, or are looser versions OK?

I've put the source with the changes here:

Many thanks,
Roger
