Hi Ivan, is this still something you'd like to see changed?

This seems like a reasonable argument for making the Perl module visible in the standard Perl library path, and therefore something you might want to discuss with upstream. I don't see a big advantage to making the Debian package deviate from the intentions of upstream to this extent, so if you'd like to see the RlwrapFilter module be more useful to applications outside of rlwrap itself, I suggest you discuss it with Hans Lub, the upstream author. Feel free to cc me or this bug report. -- mike
