Since the satpass script is deprecated and upstream has plans to remove it completely, maybe it's better to skip it and port Astro::App::Satpass2 along with at least Astro::SpaceTrack (it is much less useful without that..) It is of a lot more interest to present the whole collection of ports that can be used to do something immediately useful, rather than just the calculation module which is obviously meant to work with a number of other modules.
