pmtools-1.20 (Perl Module Tools) Released
I've released pmtools-1.20 with these fixes:
- pminst now only displays unique names.
- pminst now ignores non-existent directories in @INC.
- I added pmcheck, a utility to check whether Perl is set up for Perl modules. At the moment, pmcheck just reports problems with @INC (missing directories, etc.)
Perl/CPAN user since 1992.
Great!
It would be cool to also share the code on a public repository such as Github, and add metadata to the distribution to advertise it.
I see that you have 2 Github accounts:
https://github.com/pbmarklf
https://github.com/markleightonfisher
Which one do you use?
Could you link it to from your MetaCPAN profile page?
I can't get to my MetaCPAN profile, as I have my CPAN email currently set up as a 'no-spam' email. I just added https://github.com/markleightonfisher/pmtools as a pmtools GitHub repo based off of pmtools v1.20.
The next version of pmtools will contain the GitHub repo URL in the README file per your suggestion (I just added it locally).
An URL in a README is useless as it can not be seriously processed by programs.
Please fix the metadata.
For your MetaCPAN profile issue, can't you just modify temporarly the e-mail address of your PAUSE account just for the time needed to register on MetaCPAN?
