Module::Install::TrustMetaYml - trusts META.yml list of dependencies
In Makefile.PL:
trust_meta_yml;
CPAN doesn't trust META.yml's list of dependencies for a module. Instead it expects Makefile.PL run on the computer the package is being installed upon to generate its own list of dependencies (called MYMETA.yml or MYMETA.json).
META.yml
Makefile.PL
MYMETA.yml
MYMETA.json
This module is a Module::Install plugin that generates MYMETA.yml by simply passing through the dependencies from META.yml.
It does nothing when run from the module author's development copy.
The module defines two functions which are aliases for each other:
trust_meta_yml
trust_meta_yaml
Please report any bugs to http://rt.cpan.org/Dist/Display.html?Queue=Module-Install-TrustMetaYml.
Module::Install, Module::Package::RDF.

Thanks to Chris Williams (BINGOS), Ingy döt Net (INGY) and Florian Ragwitz (FLORA) for explaining the role of MYMETA.json, and helping me figure out why mine weren't working.
