Kwalitee Fails

Core fails
metricremedy
prereq matches use

This distribution uses a module or a dist that's not listed as a prerequisite.

List all used modules in META.yml requires

consistent version

This distribution has .pm files with inconsistent versions.

Split the distribution, or fix the version numbers to make them consistent (use the highest version number to avoid version downgrade).

Extra fails
metricremedy
no stdin for prompting

This distribution is using direct call from STDIN instead of prompt(). Make sure STDIN is not used in Makefile.PL or Build.PL. See http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?cpan_packaging

Use the prompt() method from ExtUtils::MakeMaker/Module::Build.

metayml declares perl version

This distribution does not declare the minimum perl version in META.yml.

If you are using Build.PL define the {requires}{perl} = VERSION field. If you are using MakeMaker (Makefile.PL) you should upgrade ExtUtils::MakeMaker to 6.48 and use MIN_PERL_VERSION parameter. Perl::MinimumVersion can help you determine which version of Perl your module needs.

Experimental fails
metricremedy
metayml has provides

This distribution does not have a list of provided modules defined in META.yml.

Add all modules contained in this distribution to the META.yml field 'provides'. Module::Build does this automatically for you.

has separate license file

This distribution does not have a LICENSE or LICENCE file in its root directory.

This is not a critical issue. Currently mainly informative for the CPANTS authors. It might be removed later.

has version in each file

This distribution has a .pm file without version number. (Using Parse::PMFile to match them)

Add a version number to each .pm file.

easily repackageable by debian

It is easy to repackage this module by Debian.

Fix each one of the metrics this depends on.
