Package: libtest-spelling-perl
Version: 0.13-1
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Justification: renders package unusable

Sometimes, in particular when using Build, I get the following error.

Modification of a read-only value attempted at /usr/share/perl5/Test/Spelling.pm line 223, <DATA> line 1002.

If I try to debug the code, the issue goes away. However
I can see a very plausible patch, and forward it upstream.
