Control: tag -1 - upstream

No. This doesn't make sense for upstream.

In doing that you would enforce upstream to expect all its users to
have the perl binary where Debian installs it. BSDs might have it at
/usr/local/bin/perl. Every perlbrew installation has it elsewhere,
too. So for upstream "#!/usr/bin/env perl" makes smore ense and for Debian
and derived distributions, "#!/usr/bin/perl" makes more sense.

Hence this is a debian-specific issue and doesn't need the "upstream"
tag.
