  Fri Oct 30 21:56:09 2015 CHORNY [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
From: CHORNY [...] cpan.org
Subject: META.yml/json should be present
CPAN distributions should contain files META.yml and META.json. They are generated by your build tool when creating distribution. Build tool for IIS/Zonemaster-v1.0.7.tar.gz was detected as Module::Install. Please upgrade it and ExtUtils::MakeMaker to latest version. You can create your distribution with these files using `make dist` (dmake on Windows). P.S. If this report is for an old version, please delete old indexed versions mentioned here: http://cpanold.chorny.net/?a=IIS and contact me. P.P.S. This report was generated automatically.

If I "make dist" on this version, META.yml and META.json are being generated. However, they are not included in the tar-ball as suggested above. Advice?

Remove inc/ directory and let Module::Install recreate it. If I understand correctly, META.* is created only if .author directory is present in inc/. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net
