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.

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

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:

• Perl::Critic::Moose
• Perl::Critic::Policy::Moose::ProhibitMultipleWiths
• Perl::Critic::Policy::Moose::ProhibitNewMethod
• Perl::Critic::Policy::Moose::RequireCleanNamespace
• Perl::Critic::Policy::Moose::RequireMakeImmutable

Add a 'repository' resource to the META.yml via 'meta_add' accessor (for Module::Build) or META_ADD parameter (for ExtUtils::MakeMaker).

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

List all modules used in the Makefile.PL/Build.PL in META.yml configure_requires
