Is some real Depends from libnet-telnet-perl needed in libasterisk-agi-perl?

Hi,

I updated the packaging of libasterisk-agi-perl in Salsa.  I stumbled upon the
failed autopkgtest[1] which says:

   # Can't locate Net/Telnet.pm in @INC  ...

So it seems that we do not need only a Build-Depends: libnet-telnet-perl (which
is set in d/control) but also a Depends.  There is:

$ grep -Ri Net::Telnet
lib/Asterisk/Astman.pm:use Net::Telnet;
lib/Asterisk/Astman.pm: $self->{'telnet'} = new Net::Telnet;
Makefile.PL:        'Net::Telnet' => 0
META.yml:  Net::Telnet: '0'
META.json:            "Net::Telnet" : "0"


Any reason why this Depends is not automatically detected?

Kind regards
    Andreas.
