I'm not sure encouraging users to randomly download stuff using curl is the best approach from a security point of view. Distribution packages should have a higher level of trust, especially when coming from the main repos.
Then you could either fix the package or file a drop request since Im not sure having a package with a single perl script whose functionality is provided by other packages is worth the effort.
That package includes a man page, changelog, license and is way easier to install in a scripted manner. Thanks, Robert
