 Current Caveats

It does not reflect the current ArchLinux perl package(s) layout. Please do not use this document as a template for creating new perl module packages... yet... This policy, if implemented - represents a major change in way Arch handles perl.

For a draft proposal of a current “perl packaging standard” see instead Perl_Package_Guidelines.
