Bug #120338 for NKTI-general: META.yml/json should be present

Thu Feb 23 02:45:41 2017 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 YUSRIDEB/NKTI-general.zip was detected as ExtUtils::MakeMaker. Please upgrade it to latest version. You can create your distribution with these files using `make dist` (dmake on Windows). If you use VCS, you can show link to it on Metacpan and search.cpan.org. See http://perlmaven.com/how-to-add-link-to-version-control-system-of-a-cpan-distributions P.S. If this report is for an old version, please delete old indexed versions mentioned here: http://cpanold.chorny.net/?a=YUSRIDEB and contact me. P.P.S. This report was generated automatically.

I suppose you don't use version control system, so you don't need to add anything to Makefile.PL. But you distribution has some problems: 1. Your distribution contains files MYMETA.yml and/or MYMETA.json. These files should not be included into distribution - they are generated when installing. See http://weblog.bulknews.net/post/44251476706/stop-shipping-mymeta-to-cpan Also it contains extra files dbconnect.pm.bak, mysql.pm.bak, sqlite.pm.bak, Makefile and Makefile.old 2. It does not contain META.yml/META.json 3. It has incorrect directory structure. Correct is directory Dist-Name-version, in which should be META.yml/json and Makefile.PL or Build.PL. `make dist` or `Build dist` should create it automatically. Using make zipdist (or dmake zipdist/nmake zipdist depending on OS/perl distribution) to create distribution will solve all your problems. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net
