Kwalitee Issues

extracts_nicely

Pack the distribution with a proper command such as "make dist" and "./Build dist", or use a distribution builder such as Dist::Zilla, Dist::Milla, Minilla.

Error: More than one top directories are found: Makefile.PL;t;README;lib

no_pax_headers

If you use Mac OS X >= 10.6, use gnu tar (/usr/bin/gnutar) to avoid PAX headers. It's also important to rename (shorten) long file names (>= 100 characters) in the distribution.

Error: PaxHeader/lib,PaxHeader/lib,lib/PaxHeader/Parse,lib/PaxHeader/Parse,lib/Parse/PaxHeader/SSA.pm,lib/Parse/PaxHeader/SSA.pm,PaxHeader/t,PaxHeader/t,t/PaxHeader/data,t/PaxHeader/data,t/data/PaxHeader/test.ass,t/data/PaxHeader/test.ass,t/PaxHeader/00_compile.t,t/PaxHeader/00_compile.t,PaxHeader/Makefile.PL,PaxHeader/Makefile.PL,PaxHeader/README,PaxHeader/README

has_manifest

Add a MANIFEST to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it (eg "make manifest" or "./Build manifest")

has_meta_yml

Add a META.yml to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it.

has_changelog

Add a Changelog (best named 'Changes') to the distribution. It should list at least major changes implemented in newer versions.

has_version

Add a version number to the packed distribution. Or use a buildtool ('make dist' or 'Build dist')

has_proper_version

Remove all letters from the version number. If you want to mark a release as a developer release, use the scheme 'Module-1.00_01'

manifest_matches_dist

Run a proper command ("make manifest" or "./Build manifest", maybe with a force option), or use a distribution builder to generate the MANIFEST. Or update MANIFEST manually.

Error: Cannot find MANIFEST in dist.

has_abstract_in_pod

Provide a short description in the NAME section of the pod (after the module name followed by a hyphen) at least for the main module of this distribution.

use_strict

Add 'use strict' (or its equivalents) to all modules, or convince us that your favorite module is well-known enough and people can easily see the modules are strictly written.

Error: Parse::SSA

main_module_version_matches_dist_version

Make sure that the main module name and version are the same of the distribution.

no_pod_errors

Remove the POD errors. You can check for POD errors automatically by including Test::Pod to your test suite.

Error: lib/Parse/SSA.pm -- Around line 6: =pod directives shouldn't be over one line long! Ignoring all 3 lines of content

has_meta_json

Add a META.json to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it.

meta_yml_has_license

Define the license if you are using in Build.PL. If you are using MakeMaker (Makefile.PL) you should upgrade to ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 6.31.

has_separate_license_file

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