Bug#788893: dh-make-perl: FTBFS with perl 5.22 (Module::Build::Metadata)

Severity: important

Usertags: perl-5.22-transition

This package FTBFS with perl 5.22, since Module::Build::Metadata has been
removed from perl core:

Can't locate Module/Build/ModuleInfo.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Mod
ule::Build::ModuleInfo module) (@INC contains: /«PKGBUILDDIR»/blib/lib /«PKGBUIL
DDIR»/blib/arch /«PKGBUILDDIR»/privinc /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

# Looks like your test exited with 2 before it could output anything.

The fix is probably to refactor the code to use Module::Metadata instead:

This bug will become release critical nearer the time of the perl 5.22
migration.

Cheers,
Dominic.
