Bug#686739: dh-make-perl: Incorrect resolution of dependencies

[Ralf Hildebrandt]

Package: dh-make-perl
Version: 0.70-1
Severity: important


I'm trying to build CGI::Application::Dispatch as a debian package.
Here's what happens:

# dh-make-perl --cpan-mirror
ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/languages/perl/CPAN/ -build --cpan
CGI::Application::Dispatch

Shall I follow them and prepend them to the queue
of modules we are processing right now? [yes] 
Cannot get M/MA/MARKSTOS/CGI-Application-Dispatch-3.10.tar.gz


M/MA/MARKSTOS/CGI-Application-Dispatch-3.10.tar.gz
is exactly the module it just loaded - why would it depend on itself?
