Hi Jan,
The distname for your Bundle::libwin32 is Bundle-libwin32 in Makefile.PL, as
it's based on the module name:
NAME => 'Bundle::libwin32',
But in META.yml the dist name is set to:
name: libwin32
This results in different tools having different ideas about what the distname
is. Would you like to release an update please, with the expected distname in
META.yml?
I'm automatically processing distributions using information from MetaCPAN, and
compiled a list of dists that have confusing / unexpected dist names. Which is
what prompted this report.
Cheers,
Neil
