Re^2: ExtUtils::Installed fails to find Catalyst because it doesn't have a .packlist

in thread ExtUtils::Installed fails to find Catalyst because it doesn't have a .packlist

I think ExtUtils::Install creates the .packlist during make install. It was installed by cpanm like all my other modules and a reinstall did not create a .packlist. Going through the Catalyst files like Makefile.PL I don't see a deliberate effort to delete the .packfile so maybe something's wrong with how it interacts with ExtUtils::Install? Creating my own .packlist files for random CPAN modules is not within the scope of my application. I'd rather know what is breaking the perl toolchain here. Thanks

    Meta: Consider adding such information to your top post in the first place instead of waiting for replies trying to find out what your actual problem or question is. Maybe also consider phrasing the title of your post as a question instead of a statement of what you see.

    Since you don't tell us anything about the difference between how you installed Catalyst versus how you installed other modules, there is very little we can do without your help here. Consider finding out what the difference is in installation between the two distributions.
