thanks
#717213 and #722210 are the same issue. This was recently fixed upstream
in Module-Metadata 1.000018 or so. See [rt.cpan.org #88576].
It seems useful to track the issue in both perl-modules and
libmodule-metadata-perl, so I'm not merging the bugs.
Clearly libmodule-metadata-perl needs to be fixed first, otherwise
installing its broken version would override a fixed version in
perl-modules.
While perl and libmodule-metadata-perl in stable are affected [1],
the primary problem seems to be via use by Module-Load-Conditional,
which doesn't happen in stable. So I don't think we need a stable update
unless another vector shows up.
[1] as per the test by Chris Williams (BINGOS):
perl -TMModule::Metadata -E 'say Module::Metadata->new_from_module( "Test" )->filename'
