Yup, I've seen such things before. > Ouch.

No. dh-make-perl creates a source packages, and then builds it, so the tests are run during the package build phase; and building without debian/* would be difficult :) What you can do in cases like this is to skip the tests, either by * calling dh-make-perl without --build, edit debian/rules and then build * or by calling dh-make-perl without --build, then build with adding "nocheck" to the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS environment variable * or by passing DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS to dh-make-perl: $ DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck dh-make-perl --build --cpan Tk::Wizard Anyway, I don't see a bug in dh-make-perl here and propose to close the bug.
