The Carp::Clan module uses the DB package temporarily and the PAUSE
indexer seems to think I'm attempting to publish something in the DB
namespace.

I added a no_index entry to my META.yml but that doesn't appear to be
stopping PAUSE. Is this documented somewhere? I looked in
ExtUtils::MakeMaker for notes on Makefile.PL magic (none) and the CPAN
faq (nothing apropos) and got nothing useful. The PAUSE faq mentions
no_index but doesn't document how to use it. The META.yml spec doesn't
mention no_index.

The PAUSE source code appears to be treating no_index like a hash
looking things up by package but my setting didn't affect it. Here's
my http://search.cpan.org/src/JJORE/Carp-Clan-5.8/META.yml:

 # http://module-build.sourceforge.net/META-spec.html
 name:         Carp-Clan
 version:      5.8
 license: perl
 installdirs:  site
 distribution_type: module
 no_index:
   DB: 1

I assume I am doing something wrong because I'm not hearing from other
people complaining that PAUSE is ignoring their no_index settings.

WTH am I doing wrong?
