But I'm curious about how the automatic addition of MYMETA.yml to
MANIFEST.SKIP (as shown in the output) didn't keep you from running
into this. (I'm mostly concerned about whether it might cause
problems for more valid use-cases than a signature.t.)
Adding MYMETA to MANIFEST.SKIP does not cause the MANIFEST to be
rebuilt.
I think Eric was asking why Module::Signature isn't ignoring MYMETA
once it gets added to MANIFEST.SKIP.
Yeah. If Module::Signature is just being naïve, then I guess that's not
our problem.
I don't think its naïve to trust the MANIFEST, having it second-guess would
probably cause more trouble.
Anyhow, agreed that this is a transient problem that happens once per dist and
will clear up as soon as the author rebuilds the MANIFEST.
