Subject: Inconsistent filename vs directory name
Hi Omega, I have a small request that's still pretty important. The downloadable CPAN-packages generally are called something like Module-Name-0.1.3.tar.gz , where 0.1.3 is the versioning bit. When we unpack the archive, they expand into Module-Name-0.1.3 This convention makes scripting quite easy. [user@localhost spec]$ ls -l -L | grep PDF-Table -rw-rw-r-- 1 user user 28566 Dec 19 19:19 PDF-Table-0.9.7.tar.gz drwxrwxr-x 6 user user 4096 Dec 19 19:13 PDF-Table-Version_0.9.7 However, you've added "-Version" inside the directory name. That makes repackaging your module more challenging than necessary. Can you fix it in the next release, please? Best regards, Jens-Petter Salvesen
