[PATCH 0/7] Add Stow.

[PATCH 0/7] Add Stow.

[Ricardo Wurmus]

This patch set adds GNU Stow and its dependencies.

I'm not sure I did the propagate-inputs thing right, but it seemed necessary
as otherwise I had to manually propagate inputs to satisfy the load
requirements of some of the later modules.

Ricardo Wurmus (7):
  gnu: Add Sub::Install.
  gnu: Add Params::Util.
  gnu: Add Capture::Tiny.
  gnu: Add Data::OptList.
  gnu: Add Sub::Exporter.
  gnu: Add Test::Output.
  gnu: Add Stow.

Thanks for these.  Were you able to use the cpan importer?

The perl module patches look good to me.  Thanks for providing useful
content for the 'description' field.  I know that's not always easy for
perl modules ;)

I did use the CPAN importer, but ended up removing all of the detected
inputs.  Apparantly it added packages as inputs that are available as
part of the perl-build-system already.  I did use the output of the
importer to check my final package definitions, though.  It also made it
easier to get the homepage and a workable synopsis.

Maybe the inputs that are added by default could be tweaked a bit more.
Other than that I found it very useful.
