Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package libdevel-bt-perl,
which is part of the perl section, and maintained by Debian Perl Group
<pkg-perl-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org>. 

This package contains : module providing automatic gdb backtraces on
errors.

Devel::bt, when enabled, registers a handler for certain types of fatal
errors, like segmentation faults, and, once such an error occurs, prints a
debugger backtrace to standard output before exiting the program.

It is intended to be used to debug crashes in situations where running the
failing program directly under a debugger is not possible, for example when
trying to get more information from cpantesters or from users unfamiliar with
gdb.
