Subject: META.* and MYMETA.* files mishandled in MANIFEST and MANIFEST.SKIP
In the ExtUtils-Install distribution, MANIFEST unnecessarily includes 'META.json' and 'META.yml', while MANIFEST.SKIP fails to list 'MYMETA.json' and 'MYMETA.yml' as files to be skipped when the tarball is generated by 'make dist'. The consequences are two-fold. First, we get a misleading warning during configuration: ##### $ perl Makefile.PL Checking if your kit is complete... Warning: the following files are missing in your kit: META.json META.yml Please inform the author. Generating a Unix-style Makefile Writing Makefile for ExtUtils::Install Writing MYMETA.yml and MYMETA.json ##### Second, if I call 'make manifest', the MYMETA.* files are added to MANIFEST and subsequently added to the tarball -- unnecessarily so. ##### [perlmonger: ExtUtils-Install] $ make cp lib/ExtUtils/Install.pm blib/lib/ExtUtils/Install.pm cp lib/ExtUtils/Installed.pm blib/lib/ExtUtils/Installed.pm cp lib/ExtUtils/Packlist.pm blib/lib/ExtUtils/Packlist.pm Manifying 3 pod documents [perlmonger: ExtUtils-Install] $ make manifest "/usr/local/bin/perl5" "-Ilib" "-MExtUtils::Manifest=mkmanifest" -e mkmanifest Added to MANIFEST: MYMETA.json Added to MANIFEST: MYMETA.yml ##### Assisted on #toolchain by comments from leont_, ether and Grinnz, I suggest the following patch (which I'll submit via p.r.): Revisions: ##### [perlmonger: ExtUtils-Install] $ gitdstag |cat diff --git a/MANIFEST b/MANIFEST index f6f49a3..e96117b 100644 --- a/MANIFEST +++ b/MANIFEST @@ -6,8 +6,6 @@ lib/ExtUtils/Packlist.pm Makefile.PL MANIFEST MANIFEST.SKIP -META.json -META.yml README t/can_write_dir.t t/Install.t diff --git a/MANIFEST.SKIP b/MANIFEST.SKIP index d44642a..13441b4 100644 --- a/MANIFEST.SKIP +++ b/MANIFEST.SKIP @@ -16,6 +16,7 @@ make_from_core.sh \bpm_to_blib\.ts$ \bpm_to_blib$ \.gz$ +\b\bMYMETA.*$ \bblibdirs\.ts$ # 6.18 through 6.25 generated this # Avoid Module::Build generated and utility files. ##### After revisions in MANIFEST and MANIFEST.SKIP ##### $ perl Makefile.PL Checking if your kit is complete...
