[Build-common-hackers] Bug#342940: Building perl packages does not work anymore ('configure' needed?!)

[Christian Hammers]

Package: cdbs
Version: 0.4.32
Severity: important

Hello

Suddenly my rules file does not work anymore (packages
libdbi-perl-1.49):

	#!/usr/bin/make -f

	DH_VERBOSE=1

	# Put perlmodule.mk last to dh_clean temporary files not in MANIFEST
	include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk
	include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/perlmodule.mk

	DEB_INSTALL_EXAMPLES_libdbi-perl := test.pl

	install/libdbi-perl ::
		chmod -x debian/libdbi-perl/usr/lib/perl5/Roadmap.pod
		install -m 0644 -D debian/libdbi-perl.lintian-overrides
	debian/libdbi-perl/usr/share/lintian/overrides/libdbi-perl

it outputs the following.

bye,

-christian
