SYNOPSIS # dist.ini [@Author::PERLANCAR] is equivalent to (see source). DESCRIPTION The gist: I avoid stuffs that might change line numbers (so OurPkgVersion instead of PkgVersion, etc). I also always add #ABSTRACT, #PODNAME, and POD at the end of file). I still maintain dependencies and increase version number manually (so no AutoVersion and AutoPrereqs). I install my dists after release (the eat-your-own-dog-food principle), except when INSTALL=0 environment is specified. I also archive them using a script called archive-perl-release. This is currently a script on my computer, you can get them from my 'scripts' github repo but this is optional and the release process won't fail if the script does not exist.
