    Thanks for the reply. While dh-make-perl is a very cool utility and part of the debhelper family, it'd be cool to have a module that does do ar archives, and doesn't depend on debhelper (which in turn depends on ar).

    I've been playing with that and it's a very clean little utility. Still any ideas about ar? Thanks.
