Moin,

I already wondered many times why the license for most of my modules is not
set/shown at search.cpan.org, even though modules like BigInt have simple the
perl license (being part of the core etc).

Seems like setting a "license: perl" line in META.yml would fix this. However,
everytime I run "make dist", the META.yml file is overwritten again, with the
license line missing. And it seems that MakeMaker doesn't have a "LICENSE =>"
setting.

Of course, I can set "NO_META" to true, and modify the META.yml file manually,
but that looses the handy property that META.yml is autogenerated with the
correct dependencies etc. (e.g. everytime I change Makefile.PL, I have to
remember to change META.yml, which I surely will forget from time to
time. Ugh.)

So, is it possible to have MakeMaker to generate the license line
automagically, or I am something missing?

Best wishes,

Tels
