Add mandatory "perl" META field #4

Closed zoffixznet closed 3 months ago

zoffixznet commented 7 years ago

The perl field specifies the minimal perl version for which this distribution can be installed and is a mandatory field. The value of "6.*" indicates any version suffices.

It is recommended to use Test::META module as an author test, to catch any issues with the META file.

What would I use to specify that it only work on 6.b and earlier? This module got broken for Christmas.

Unsure. The speculation says the field represents the "minimum" version.

I asked on IRC, but so far did not get any response: https://irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/2016-10-26#i_13470159
