Package: dh-make-perl
Version: 0.49
Severity: wishlist
Far too often the long description that is extracted from the POD starts
like this:
This module does this and that in a very nice way.
Compare this with:
Foo::Bar does this and that in a very nice way.
The later would allow searching for the package with
apt-cache search Foo::Bar
If dh-make-perl can offer some aid for easying searching in the obvious
cases, that would be nice.
