| Subject: | Extra directory level in tarball |
The tarball contains an extra directory, see https://metacpan.org/source/VLD/Algorithm-NCS-0.03
This is confusing installers like CPAN.pm:
...
Checksum for /home/cpansand/.cpan/sources/authors/id/V/VL/VLD/Algorithm-NCS-0.03.tar.gz ok
CPAN: CPAN::Meta::Requirements loaded ok (v2.140)
CPAN: CPAN::Meta loaded ok (v2.150010)
Package seems to come without Makefile.PL.
(The test -f "/home/cpansand/.cpan/build/2018042006/Algorithm-NCS-0.03-48/Makefile.PL" returned false.)
Writing one on our own (setting NAME to Algorithm)
Configuring V/VL/VLD/Algorithm-NCS-0.03.tar.gz with Makefile.PL
Will not send CPAN Testers report with generated Makefile.PL.
...
Additionally, MYMETA.json/yml is part of the tarball contents, but META.json/yml is not. It should be the other way around.
Usually a "correct" tarball is created by issuing "make dist". This should fix all the issues mentioned here.
