+Tag: libapp-perl-package-name
+Severity: error
+Check: application-not-library
+Explanation: This package contains a program in $PATH and is named
+ libapp-*-perl which usually implies that the upstream project on CPAN
+ is under the App:: hierarchy for applications. Instead of
+ libfoo-bar-perl it should be named foo-bar.
+ .
+ People tend to skip library-like named packages when looking for
+ applications in the package list and hence wouldn't notice this
+ package.
