Re^3: make dist (ExtUtils::MakeMaker) on Windows stores text files with DOS line endings in .tar.gz archiveby Corion (Patriarch) |

Running make dist on a Unix machine doesn't help anything if the text files have Windows-style (or Mac-style) line endings. The only thing that would help would be to convert all files to Unix-line endings before running make dist, which can be done on a Windows or Unix machine. I use a test file by brian_d_foy that checks the line endings of all files in my distribution to ensure that all are consistent.
