I don't know if it's relevant to the metacpan problem but
Astro::Montenbruck, despite working very well as an ephemeris,
has weird install issues with regard to CPAN and Perl. A few past releases
failed the tests because it didn't install the prerequisite
List::MoreUtils. I never noticed
it before but the
10 included scripts are simply not installed anywhere. Also it is invisible to ExtUtils::Installed:
perl -MAstro::Montenbruck -le 'print $Astro::Montenbruck::VERSION'
> 1.26
perl -MExtUtils::Installed -MData::Dumper -le 'print Dumper(ExtUtils::
+Installed->new->files("Astro::Montenbruck"))'
> Astro::Montenbruck is not installed at -e line 1.
But Module::Metadata sees it (perldoc works too):
perl -MModule::Metadata -MData::Dumper -le 'print Module::Metadata->ne
+w_from_module("Astro::Montenbruck")->{filename}'
> /lib/site_perl/5.36.0/Astro/Montenbruck.pm
I guess something's wrong with the installation configs (packlist?) and hope that someone who understands such things can figure it out and contact
the author with the required fixes for this otherwise excellent distribution. |
