Kwalitee Issues

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: Apache2-RequestData/lib/Apache2/PaxHeaders.18092/RequestData.pm,Apache2-RequestData/lib/Apache2/PaxHeaders.18092/RequestData.pm,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/Changes,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/Changes,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/MANIFEST,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/MANIFEST,Apache2-RequestData/t/PaxHeaders.18092/Apache2-RequestData.t,Apache2-RequestData/t/PaxHeaders.18092/Apache2-RequestData.t,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/README,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/README,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/Makefile.PL,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/Makefile.PL,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/RequestData.pm,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/RequestData.pm,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/Makefile.old,Apache2-RequestData/PaxHeaders.18092/Makefile.old

has_meta_yml

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

buildtool_not_executable

Change the permissions of Build.PL/Makefile.PL to not-executable.

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:

  • MANIFEST (6) does not match dist (8):
  • Missing in MANIFEST: Makefile.old, RequestData.pm

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: Apache2::RequestData, RequestData

main_module_version_matches_dist_version

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

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.

use_warnings

Add 'use warnings' (or its equivalents) to all modules, or convince us that your favorite module is well-known enough and people can easily see the modules warn when something bad happens.

Error: Apache2::RequestData, RequestData

has_separate_license_file

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

has_security_doc

Add SECURITY(.pod|md). See Software::Security::Policy.

security_doc_contains_contact

Add SECURITY(.pod|md) and add a contact address. See Software::Security::Policy.

has_contributing_doc

Add CONTRIBUTING(.pod|md). See https://docs.github.com/en/communities/setting-up-your-project-for-healthy-contributions/setting-guidelines-for-repository-contributors.
