You should first package it as a standard Perl distribution using module-
starter:

http://search.cpan.org/dist/Module-Starter/

After it is ready and passes all tests, you should register for a PAUSE 
account:

http://pause.perl.org/pause/query

Then you can upload it to the CPAN, and then use a tool like dh-make-perl ( 
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/78 ) or cpan2dist (see: 
http://search.cpan.org/dist/CPANPLUS-Dist-Deb/ ) to prepare a package out of 
it, and you can prepare a repository from it.

If you want it to be part of Ubuntu Linux, then you should submit a request 
for inclusion with Debian:
