| Subject: | Bad permissions in 0.095 tarball |
All directories in WWW-Ebay-0.095.tar.gz don't have the "r" permission bit. This means that building the distribution on most (all?) Unix-like systems won't work.
This is how the tar listing looks on my system (freebsd 8.0):
$ tar tfvz WWW-Ebay-0.095.tar.gz

Probably best to create the distribution using "make dist", as this target should take care of everything?
