That is a good idea. Why the heck didn't I think of that.

I will look into this. I love the Debian package management system.
Bringing it to OS X is a briliant idea.

I'm a bash person myself. I still haven't set up a .bashrc file yet
though :-/

Yes indeed. Thanks.
I have an update. It turns out that compiling libming successfully
requires a patch. There is a link to the patch in the FAQ. I've
applied the patch and built libming and the perl modules which ended up
in /System/Library/Perl/darwin which is in the @INC.
The fun begins when I try testing this.
