Doug has responded via private mail. Summary:
* 0.04 was his last release and he doesn't maintain the module
  anymore
* it should have been licensed "under the same terms as Perl itself"
* he is not familiar with the 0.05 version

I've done two things now:
* contacted the author of disc-cover (Audio::CD 0.05 is downloaded
  from the disc-cover homepage) and asked him for help
* installed 0.04 on my machine and tested yaret and disc-cover --
  both seem to work, so we could upload a 1:0.04-1 package (if the
  author's statement in a private mail is "good enough" for us)

Cheers,
gregor, cc'ing the yaret and disc-cover maintainers to make them
        aware of the situation
