I would think that checkgmail should be pulled from the stable repos.  It is 
not ready for primetime.  On Gutsy, (so far), I have had to install 
dh-make-perl, (plus its dependencies), libextutils-depends-perl, 
, and now I am getting more dependency issues from:
sudo dh-make-perl --build --cpan Gtk2::Sexy

Found: Gtk2-Sexy 0.02 (libgtk2-sexy-perl arch=any)
======================================================================
Could not find the dependencies for the requested module

Please check if your module depends on Module::Install
for its build process - Automatically finding its
dependencies is unsupported, please specify them manually
using the 'depends' option. 
======================================================================

If anything, the dependencies need to be updated in the package files, and the 
workaround in:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4053269&postcount=10

needs to be implemented in the postinst of checkgmail, (since we don't
seem to have a deb package associated with Gtk2::Sexy).  Any volunteers?
