Doesn't makemaker only like you if you have a single .pm file just in
the root directory?
And otherwise you have to have your lib files actually under lib?
lib/Tree/Splay.pm
lib/Tree/Splay/Node.pm
lib/Tree/Splay/IntRange.pm
t/01_basics.t
t/02_compat.t
Makefile.PL
MANIFEST
-----------------
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
WriteMakefile(
NAME => 'Tree::Splay',
VERSION_FROM => 'lib/Tree/Splay.pm'
);
Try that...

I've had this problem for awhile with a distribution I've been working
on where sometimes, after invoking Makefile.PL, typing 'make' creates a
blib folder with all of the .exists files in the right places, but
doesn't copy the actual module files to it.
This was driving me crazy. I don't have a solution. In desperation I
removed everything from the folder that wasn't bundled with 'make
tardist', cleaned it, and ran Makefile.PL again... and no love. but
then suddenly thru nothing I could figure out, it started working again.
Does this sound like a pretty half-assed problem? I thought so too. I
figured it's my fault, don't bug other people for my mistakes.
Well, last week I went to go write a little experimental module for
myself, Tree::Splay (Hi Schwern!). I created
Tree/Splay.pm
Tree/Splay/Node.pm
Tree/Splay/IntRange.pm
t/01_basics.t
t/02_compat.t
Makefile.PL
MANIFEST
Makefile.PL contains:
===bof===
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
WriteMakefile(
NAME => 'Tree::Splay',
VERSION_FROM => 'Tree/Splay.pm'
);
===eof===
and when I run Makefile.PL and then make, I get the same damn thing:
blib gets created with .exists files, and pm_to_blib is touched, but
*nothing* else happens.
So I thought to myself, maybe it doesn't like its environment. So I
removed *EVERY* *SINGLE* file and subdirectory from the subdir where I
was working except what I named above and the *~ backup files that emacs
creates.
Still no luck. I type make, I get pm_to_blib and blib/* skeleton but my
files don't get copied into blib.
Since I don't think I'm stupid, but I'm willing to admit ignorance:
WTF??? What did I miss here??
TIA!
L8r,
