Are you referring to $SRC/lib/ExtUtils/MANIFEST.SKIP ? I'm a bit puzzled at all the stuff in there for 5.8.2, a lot of stuff looks like junk - for example why is this in there? t/lib/File/ t/Big-Dummy t/Problem-Module And why has the RCS entry which was in the 5.6.1 version been removed from 5.8.2? The 5.6.1 version looks like a model of sanity compared to the 5.8.2 one, which looks like it fell into the release by mistake from someone's $HOME directory. -- Alan Burlison --Thread Previous | Thread Next
