Perhaps the author of the perlreftut could be persuaded to s/terms of Perl's Artistic License/same terms
as Perl itself/. I've seen a lot of files which specify the former, because it used to mean the same thing.
Really? They haven't meant the same thing since Perl was
dual licensed. Which happened even before perl4. Same terms
as Perl itself means accepting either the Perl's
Artistic License, or the GNU Public License.
But note that even if you can get the copyright holder
(which isn't the same as the author), to make this change,
it's not going to satisfy Debian. And rightly so. Something
that is more worrysome for them is that you are only
allowed to distribute perlreftut as part of the
Perl package, and not separately.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
