Hello:

I am trying to create two Perl modules for distribution both as a tarball and a debian package. Using Module::Build, I have succeeded with the first task, even putting some extra images files in the right location. When using new, I pass in create_makefile_pl => 'passthrough' which I would think is all that is needed to create a makefile. Perhaps I am naive, and hope to receive enlightenment.

use strict;
use Module::Build;

my $build = Module::Build->new
(
     module_name => 'CLQ::QGraphGnuplot',
     license  => 'GPL2.0',
     create_makefile_pl => 'passthrough',
     dist_author => 'sweetser@alum.mit.edu',
     dist_version_from => 'lib/CLQ/QGraphGnuplot.pm',
     include_dirs => ['Images', 'Html_templates'],
     requires => {
         'Data::Dumper' => 0,
         'FileHandle' => 0,
         'File::Basename' => 0,
         'File::Find' => 0,
         'File::Spec' => 0,
         'List::Util' => 0
     }
);

my $build2 = Module::Build->new
(
     module_name => 'CLQ::QGraphImagemagick',
     license  => 'GPL2.0',
     create_makefile_pl => 'passthrough',
     dist_author => 'sweetser@alum.mit.edu',
     dist_version_from => 'lib/CLQ/QGraphImagemagick.pm',
);

push @{$build->build_elements}, 'png', 'html';
$build2->create_build_script;
$build->create_build_script;
