Following your work, i'm not sure if packaging perl modules into an 
obscure refdb-lib is a good option ...

For instance in Mandriva, i've packaged refdb separately from those perl 
modules since the perl modules themselves may be updated (and this can 
be unrelated to refdb itself).

For example i've made perl-Term-Clui (lastly updated to 1.36), i suppose 
this separation is also correct for debian (as someone may need 
perl-Term-Clui for another project): this will provide more feedback and 
let you away from getting a refdb-lib trailing.

This post is just for comments, feel free to use it or not ;-)

Cheers,
Stéphane
