I can't reproduce this using libtest-distmanifest-perl built inside a
chroot. Is it possible that you have an older version? Could you
please repeat the build with the latest version (1.2.2)?

If you continue having FTBFS issues please let me know. The latest
version does have the perlcritic tests in B-D-I:
libtest-perl-critic-perl (>= 1.01), libperl-critic-perl (>= 1.098),

Actually, from the changelog, it looks like version 1.1.4 was the
first released in Debian, so I'm not sure where you even got version
1.1.2.

Cheers,

Jonathan
