Bug Information
Severity: Critical
Broken in: 0.16003
Fixed in: 0.16004



Subject: Empty META.yml prevents installation
The META.yml shipped in version 0.16003 is empty. This causes an error to occur when attempting to install the module via CPANPLUS! CPAN Terminal> i DateTime::Format::Pg Installing DateTime::Format::Pg (0.16003) [ERROR] Could not read /home/tobyc/.cpanplus/5.10.0/build/DateTime-Format-Pg-0.16003/META.yml: '' Key 'prereqs' needs to be of type 'HASH' at /home/tobyc/perl/lib/perl/CPANPLUS/Module.pm line 812 [ERROR] Unable to satisfy 'configure_requires' for 'DateTime::Format::Pg' -- aborting install [ERROR] Unable to create a new distribution object for 'DateTime::Format::Pg' -- cannot continue
Release 0.16004 has resolved the issue by including a valid META.yml I have opened a ticket on the part of CPANPLUS that handles reading META.yml to suggest it has a more graceful failure mode for such cases.
