Bug Description

Binary package hint: libspreadsheet-writeexcel-perl

libspreadsheet-writeexcel-perl comes with an example directory. I tried to run one of the examples in it (csv2xls.pl), and got the following error:

Can't locate Text/CSV_XS.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/share/doc/libspreadsheet-writeexcel-perl/examples/csv2xls.pl line 27.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/doc/libspreadsheet-writeexcel-perl/examples/csv2xls.pl line 27.

My perl-foo is weak, but this looks like the package didn't install all the dependencies, or didn't list the correct dependencies.

The dependencies are enough to use the module, but you might have to install additional packages for the examples (which is why I'll mark this bug as invalid). In this case, you have to install (at least) libtext-csv-xs-perl for this particular example script.
