Bug#733670: libspork-perl: Binary package should neither be named like a library nor be in section perl

[Axel Beckert]

Package: libspork-perl
Version: 0.20-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

spork primarily seems to be an application and only secondarily a Perl
Module as even the man page to Spork(3pm) describes /usr/bin/spork and
the file format rather than the perl module's API. The same counts for
the upstream README.

Hence at least the binary package (and maybe also the source package)
should be named "spork" and not "libspork-perl". Additionally, it should
not be in section "perl" but in one of the sections text, web, utils or
misc. People will likely search for such an application in these
sections rather than a library section which is usually only interesting
for programmers.
