I'm skipping the review of src:libnet-idn-encode-perl for now, as I
think this would be duplicated functionality in 'main'.


libmail-dmarc-perl seems to be using the "domain_to_unicode" function primarily:
lib/Mail/DMARC/Base.pm:use Net::IDN::Encode qw/domain_to_unicode/;

While we already have src:libnet-libidn-perl in "main", providing similar (same?) functionality, through GNU libidn bindings:
https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::LibIDN#Net::LibIDN::idn_to_unicode($idn_hostname,-[$charset,-[$flags]]);

Have you considered using this module instead of "libnet-idn-encode-
perl", which seems to be a pure perl implementation of similar
functionality?

For reference, please also see bug #2003076 as an upgrade path to
libnet-libidn2-perl in the future.
