This package fails to build with Perl 5.18.1 (currently in experimental):

  Files=58, Tests=71, 29 wallclock secs ( 0.18 usr  0.05 sys + 23.80 cusr  1.62 
csys = 25.65 CPU)
  Result: FAIL
  Failed 47/58 test programs. 47/71 subtests failed.

According to the upstream discussion at
  https://rt.perl.org:443/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=119351
  https://github.com/pjcj/Devel--Cover/issues/66

this was accidentally broken by Perl 5.18.1 and it works with 5.18.0.
It is not clear if Perl will be fixed or if Devel-Cover needs a workaround.

Note that the package build depends on libtemplate-perl, which doesn't
currently build for Perl 5.18 either. I tested this with the pending
NMU 2.24-1.1 in DELAYED.
