lamp has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

While writing a script for finding the installed modules and their versions using ExtUtils::Installed module, I noticed that the module is using “.packlist” file for finding the installed modules. I have searched in my system for the .packlist file and found that some of the modules doesn’t have this file. I just want to know the what is the significance of .packlist file?
