in reply to ABSTRACT_FROM in Makefile.PL

you can just define, from which perl package it should take the abstract *(POD). probably it just can't find any valid POD section in openmsg.pm.

Btw: I prefer Module::Starter (and conways nice templates Module::Starter::PBP) over h2xs...

    There is a POD section in opcmsg.pm. perldoc ./opcmsg.pm renders it correctly.

      The abstract_from command retrieves the abstract from a particular file contained in the distribution package. Most often this is done from the main module, where it will read the POD and use whatever is in the =head1 NAME section (with module name removed as needed)
