Public bug reported:

[Availability]
The package is available in universe and builds on all architectures (is arch: all).

[Rationale]
libdata-perl-perl is a new build- and binary dependency for libmoox-handlesvia-perl, which itself is a build-dependency of libpod-readme-perl.

[Security]
There does not appear to be any reported security issues in the CVE or Secunia databases.

The package also does not ship any setuid binaries, or user-facing
binaries directly (it's a library).

[Quality assurance]
The package installs without issues, and appears to be easy to use (provides good documentation in the form of manual pages).

 - No debconf questions are asked.
 - There are no bugs currently open in the Ubuntu or Debian bug trackers.
 - The package is subscribed to by the Debian Perl Group, which means it is well maintained in Debian/Ubuntu by a team of responsive developers.
 - It is not hardware-specific.
 - The package ships a suite of unit tests which are run as part of the package build, it consists in 184 tests.
 - debian/watch reports that the package is up to date.

[UI standards]
Not applicable.

[Dependencies]
All build and binary dependencies are in main.

[Standards compliance]
The package meets the FHS and Debian Policy standards.

As for libmoox-types-mooselike-perl, the only I see is the use of debhelper compat version 8:
P: libdata-perl-perl source: package-uses-old-debhelper-compat-version 8

[Maintenance]
The package is well maintained in Debian and is subscribed to in Ubuntu by the Debian Perl Group.

As for maintenance upstream, while there has not been changes in a
little over a year, there is nothing to indicate that this might be
unmaintained software. This does not appear unusual given the purpose
and type of software.

[Background information]
libdata-perl-perl is a collection of classes that wrap fundamental data types that
exist in Perl.
