Subject: you should only check files in MANIFEST
When performing the Kwalitee checks, you should only check files that are listed in the MANIFEST. I am a module author. When I'm developing code, getting patches from users, etc., I have a lot of extra .pm and .pl files laying around my module-dev area. But these files, that do NOT get included in my distro, should NOT affect my modules's kwalitee. -- - - Martin 'Kingpin' Thurn
I don't think this is a bug -- the tests should be run in a *build* directory, containing what you intend to ship, not necessarily a dev repository. You can restrict running the test to release-time only (e.g. with an $ENV{RELEASE_TESTING} guard, or by putting the test in xt/release.
