Subject: license versions for GPL/LGPL
What about license values 'lgpl_3' and 'gpl_3' according to Software::License? When I choose 'lgpl' for my module, the generated URL in META.yml is not accurate enough - it links to http://opensource.org/licenses/lgpl-license.php which does not tell which version of the license is used in my module.

Version 0.3 of Module::Build has 'gpl2' and 'gpl3' which fixes half your problem. (See Bug #33803.) I have attached a proposed patch in the same style as #33803 to add 'lgpl2' and 'lgpl3' licences. Allan.
