Subject: META.yml gives the wrong dist name
Hi Gavin, The META.yml for your dist gives the dist name as: name: Catalyst::Plugin::Email::Page Where obviously this should be: name: Catalyst-Plugin-Email-Page Many tools use CPAN::DistnameInfo to determine the dist name, which for your dist produces 'Catalyst-Plugin-Email-Page'. Unfortunately it can cause problems if the effective dist name isn't the same as the dist name in the metadata. I created a list of all releases where the dist name in the metadata doesn't match the dist name in the release file name: https://gist.github.com/neilbowers/10060761 That's how I came across your dist. Can you release an update to correct this please, as it will help people who are trying to automatically process all dists on CPAN? Cheers, Neil
