This module creates and manipulates PAR distributions. They are
|
||
|
|
architecture-specific PAR files, containing everything under blib/
|
||
|
|
of CPAN distributions after their "make" or "Build" stage, a META.yml
|
||
|
|
describing metadata of the original CPAN distribution, and a MANIFEST
|
||
|
|
detailing all files within it. Digitally signed PAR distributions
|
||
|
|
will also contain a SIGNATURE file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The naming convention for such distributions is:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$NAME-$VERSION-$ARCH-$PERL_VERSION.par
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, "PAR-Dist-0.01-i386-freebsd-5.8.0.par" corresponds to the
|
||
|
|
0.01 release of "PAR-Dist" on CPAN, built for perl 5.8.0 running on
|
||
|
|
"i386-freebsd".
