| Subject: | META.json & META.yml have different meta-spec versions |
When both META files are present, my build system now compares required items from both.
Only 2 instances were reported for the 744 modules built:
Data-Phrasebook-Loader-YAML-0.11.tar.gz
Config::IniFiles: in META.json but missing from 'META.yml'
YAML: in META.yml but missing from 'META.json'
Text-CSV_XS-0.91.tgz
Config: in META.yml but missing from 'META.json'
DynaLoader: in META.yml but missing from 'META.json'
ExtUtils::MakeMaker: in META.yml but missing from 'META.json'
IO::Handle: in META.yml but missing from 'META.json'
perl: in META.yml but missing from 'META.json'
In this case test_requires in META.yml is placed under x_test_requires
rather than prereq by CPAN::META->new as it upgrades spec to version 2
Now added another test in the comparison which reports
meta-spec versions differ: META.yml has '1.4' while META.json has '2'
The reported differences listed above go away when the meta-spec
in META.json is set as 1.4 instead of '2.0'.
That might not be best solution, so here's an attempt at real 2.0 META.json
then it's just a matter of upgrading META.yml
