Kwalitee Issues

has_meta_yml

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

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:

  • MANIFEST (94) does not match dist (108):
  • Missing in MANIFEST: Mac.README, blib/lib/Carp/Clan.pm, blib/lib/Carp/Clan.pod, blib/lib/Date/Calc.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calc.pod, blib/lib/Date/Calc/Object.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calc/Object.pod, blib/lib/Date/Calendar.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calendar.pod, blib/lib/Date/Calendar/Profiles.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calendar/Profiles.pod, blib/lib/Date/Calendar/Year.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calendar/Year.pod, blib/lib/MacPPC/auto/Date/Calc/Calc.bin

prereq_matches_use

List all used modules in META.yml requires

Error:

  • Bit::Vector

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: Date-Calc-5.3-bin56Mac/Calc.pod -- Around line 1485: Non-ASCII character seen before =encoding in 'Français'. Assuming CP1252 Date-Calc-5.3-bin56Mac/blib/lib/Date/Calc.pod -- Around line 1485: Non-ASCII character seen before =encoding in 'Français'. Assuming CP1252

has_meta_json

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

proper_libs

Move your *.pm files in a directory named 'lib'. The directory structure should look like 'lib/Your/Module.pm' for a module named 'Your::Module'. If you need to provide additional files, e.g. for testing, that should not be considered for Kwalitee, then you should look at the 'provides' map in META.yml to limit the files scanned; or use the 'no_index' map to exclude parts of the distribution.

Error: blib/lib/Carp/Clan.pm, Calc.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calc.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calc/Object.pm, Calendar.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calendar.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calendar/Profiles.pm, blib/lib/Date/Calendar/Year.pm

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: Carp::Clan, Carp::Clan, Date::Calc, Date::Calc, Date::Calc::Object, Date::Calc::Object, Date::Calendar, Date::Calendar, Date::Calendar::Profiles, Date::Calendar::Profiles, Date::Calendar::Year, Date::Calendar::Year

no_unauthorized_packages

Ask the owner of the distribution (the one who released it first, or the one who is designated in x_authority) to give you a (co-)maintainer's permission.

Error:

  • Carp::Clan
  • Date::Calc
  • Date::Calc::Object
  • Date::Calendar
  • Date::Calendar::Profiles
  • Date::Calendar::Year

consistent_version

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

Error: 5.0,5.3

has_separate_license_file

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