NAME

Acme::Working::Out::Dependencies::From::META::yml::Or::META::json::Will::Be::Wrong::At::Some::Point::Like::This::Module::For::Instance - Because there is nothing like being right

VERSION

version 6.66

DESCRIPTION

Using the META.yml or META.json to work out the prereqs for a distribution without being aware that authors can do what they want in Makefile.PL or Build.PL and what it says in the two META files could very well not be what is required once Makefile.PL or Build.PL has been run, is potentially flawed.

This distribution hammers home this point by not specifying any prereqs at all in META.yml and META.json and autogenerates a list of prereqs when Makefile.PL is executed.

So what exactly are the prereqs of this module ?
