I'm trying to install XMLTV, see

  http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=39046

but it fails every time saying

  Warning: the following files are missing in your kit:
        META.yml
  Please inform the author.

The interesting thing is, when I look at MANIFEST, META.yml is mentioned on the very last line, as follows:

  META.yml Module meta-data (added by MakeMaker)

so it may not actually be a problem with the Makefile.PL file? MakeMaker is adding another file to the manifest, which is not found? Note that there are tons of META.yml files in the special file of XMLTV prerequisites, but the line added to MANIFEST is just as I've quoted it above, i.e. no path, just the filename.

There's some mention of MakeMaker and XMLTV here:

http://www.mail-archive.com/perl5-porters@perl.org/msg87187.html

which seems to suggest the problem was fixed in MakeMaker 6.29, but I'm still not getting a good install and I've got 6.30.

Any ideas?
