Bug Description
Hello,
there are Perl apps like Checkgmail which are able to use libsexy for some extended functionality. Checkgmail, for example, can display clickable links via libsexy. Unfortunately neither Debian nor Ubuntu seem to provide the Perl bindings necessary.
Luckily the process of building such a package is quite easy, all you need is:
dh-make-perl
libsexy-dev
With those packages (and their dependencies) installed, type the following:
# dh-make-perl --build --cpan Gtk2::Sexy
The resulting .deb package - in my case libgtk2-
Of course you can run dh-make-perl without the --build parameter for creating a source package meeting the Debian/Ubuntu standards.
