With my own (rather minimal) dh-make-perl.conf or without any I get: % cpan2deb Blah::FooBar CPAN: File::HomeDir loaded ok (v0.99) Going to read '/home/gregoa/.cpan/Metadata' Database was generated on Mon, 09 Apr 2012 11:51:03 GMT Can't find 'Blah::FooBar' module or distribution on CPAN And I can reproduce your error with your conf and the one from dump-config: % cpan2deb Blah::FooBar WARNING: Neither META.json nor META.yml was found Unable to determine dist name, no Build.PL, no Makefile.PL Please use --cpan. > > - Is this reproducible with the dh-make-perl version from unstable? > Yep. Indeed :) Ok, after digging through the code, it seems that that cpan option first gets set (when called as cpan2deb or with --cpan) in parse_command_line_options and then thrown out again in parse_config_file, if the config file contains "cpan: ~". So the quick workaround is to remove "cpan: ~" from ~/.dh-make-perl/dh-make-perl.conf. On the code side, marking cpan as explicitely_set when called as cpan2deb seems to work too. Committed to git, reviews welcome. Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
