Subject: | Windows newlines confuse old versions of Module::Signature |
Module::Signature 0.55 (and possibly up to 0.67) can be confused by
Windows newlines on Unix and produce the wrong signature.
ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.62.tar.gz tickles the bug in it's bundled copy of
Parse::CPAN::Meta.
Trouble is, Module::Signature 0.67 requires ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.42.
Fixing the bug that causes the false signature makes a dependency loop.
This can be resolved manually, but it kills automation.
Right now MakeMaker is converting the newlines in its bundled copy of
Parse::CPAN::Meta to avoid the loop. It would be very nice if the
upstream module used Unix newlines.
Thanks!
