Hi,

the problem is this debian/rules line you added:

 perl -MXML::SAX -e "XML::SAX->add_parser(q(XML::SAX::Expat))->save_parsers()"

Upstream uses this to modify the XML::SAX configuration file
ParserDetails.ini when installing.  The Debian way is to run
update-perl-sax-parsers(8) from the postinst.

Cheers,
