Kwalitee Issues

has_meta_yml

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

no_broken_auto_install

Upgrade the bundled version of Module::Install to at least 0.89, but preferably to the most current release. Alternatively, you can switch to another build system / installer that does not suffer from this problem. (ExtUtils::MakeMaker, Module::Build both of which have their own set of problems.)

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: PAR::Filter, PAR::Heavy

prereq_matches_use

List all used modules in META.yml requires

Error:

  • Tk::Derived
  • Tk::Frame
  • Tk::MainWindow
  • Tk::Text

no_pod_errors

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

Error: PAR-0.958/lib/PAR/FAQ.pod -- Around line 107: Non-ASCII character seen before =encoding in '–icon'. Assuming UTF-8

valid_signature

Sign the dist as the last step before creating the archive. Take care not to modify/regenerate dist meta files or the manifest.

Error: Old SIGNATURE detected. Please inform the module author to regenerate SIGNATURE using Module::Signature version 0.82 or newer. gpg: Signature made Sat 11 Nov 2006 07:22:54 PM JST gpg: using DSA key 642BA2984E758317 gpg: Can't check signature: No public key ==> BAD/TAMPERED signature detected! <==

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: contrib/stdio/Stdio.pm, contrib/automated_pp_test/pipe_a_command.pm, contrib/automated_pp_test/prior_to_test.pm, contrib/automated_pp_test/remove_file_and_try_executable_again.pm, contrib/automated_pp_test/test_in_further_subdir.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: App::Packer::PAR, PAR::Filter, PAR::Filter::Bleach, PAR::Filter::Bytecode, PAR::Filter::Obfuscate, PAR::Filter::PatchContent, PAR::Filter::PodStrip, PAR::Heavy, pipe_a_command, prior_to_test, remove_file_and_try_executable_again, test_in_further_subdir

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:

  • MainWindow
  • Tk::Stdio
  • Tk::Stdio::Handle
  • pipe_a_command
  • prior_to_test
  • remove_file_and_try_executable_again
  • test_in_further_subdir

consistent_version

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

Error: 0.02,0.06,0.07,0.09,0.17,0.91,0.958,1.0

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.
