Kengo Seki commented on AVRO-1461:
----------------------------------
[~iemejia], I don't have ownership for the Avro package. [~rskraba] do you have
that?
If he also doesn't, I think this is the latter case described above, that is,
{quote}this is a brand new distribution and that package name was neither
listed in the 'provides' field in the META file nor found inside the
distribution's modules.
{quote}
According to the CPAN document, module metadata including the 'provides' field
should be defined in the file called META.json or META.yml
([https://www.cpan.org/modules/04pause.html#indexer]).
But in our case, these files are automatically generated by the build process.
So I think we have to define it in Makefile.PL or something. I'll investigate
how we should do.
Or, can you edit module metadata online in the PAUSE website? According to the
Chapter 15 of the following book, the PAUSE site seems to provide such means.
