This parsing error, caused by an invalid upstream META.{json,yaml} file, happens in Parse::CPAN::Meta, which comes with perl.I see dh-make-perl unconditionally calls CPAN::Meta->load_file() which is documented to "die if the deserialized version fails to validate against its stated specification version."
Ok …
It seems to me that dh-make-perl needs to add exception handling. Gregor, could you please reassign back if you agree?
