Hi,

the current version fails to build on GNU/kFreeBSD.
It is due to forcing:

override_dh_auto_configure:
        EV_EPOLL=1 dh_auto_configure

Please drop this override or limit it only for linux architectures.

Or better fix #716928, i.e. by changing
Makefile.PL:my $can_epoll = -e "/usr/include/sys/epoll.h";
into testing return value of something like
   echo "#include <sys/epoll.h>" | gcc -E - >/dev/null

Cheers

 	Petr
