The permissions of the resulting directory contain no x bit, preventing any user from chdiring into it. That's on Linux.
Did you use 'make dist' to produce the tarball? Which tools were involved? We have 12 similar distros on CPAN and I would like to extinguish them if possible. Can you please fix and try to provide pointers how it came about?
Thank you!
