Hi, is there a reason to turn File::ShareDir support automatically on when there is directory 'share'? There are couple of modules on CPAN that have that folder and are not expecting this. see dists-with-share-folder-buildpl.txt attachment. We have one darkpan module that has "share" folder at $work and suddenly the files are installed to /auto/ after upgrading to dev Module::Build.
There are a lot of other distributions (I've counted 122) that are not using Module::Build but has "share" folder. See dists-with-share-folder.txt attachment. So people are using this folder name. I like the feature, but I think it should not be on by default. Adding "share_dir => 'share'," to constructor is not too much of a problem, when someone wants to have File::ShareDir. Best regards, Jozef
