The MANIFEST did not call for the files in the .AppleDouble folder, but they are still copied to blib. This is still a problem.

Well, .AppleDouble/Foo.pm sure did not get copied to blib (I tested)

But lib/.AppleDouble/Foop.pm did -- you should have been more specific!

But I'd say its still not a problem because the purpose of MANIFEST.SKIP is to control which files get put into a tarball when you use make dist -- and if you do use make dist then the resulting tarball will be free of .AppleDouble folders

Otherwise you'd have to use the icky PM_FILTER option, or the laborious PM option

    PM => {
        'Foo.pm'      => '$(INST_LIBDIR)/Foo.pm',
        'lib/Foop.pm' => '$(INST_LIBDIR)/Foop.pm',
    },

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
