He is trying to let you know that Makefile.PL contains the names of
the modules this one is dependent on. Specifically the hash ref
stored in PREREQ_PM.
use strict;
use warnings;
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
WriteMakefile(
NAME => 'Text::Balanced',
AUTHOR => 'Damian Conway <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>',
VERSION_FROM => 'lib/Text/Balanced.pm',
ABSTRACT_FROM => 'lib/Text/Balanced.pm',
INSTALLDIRS => ($] >= 5.007003 ? 'perl' : 'site'),
PL_FILES => {},
PREREQ_PM => {
'Test::More' => 0,
'version' => 0,
},
dist => { COMPRESS => 'gzip -9f', SUFFIX => 'gz', },
clean => { FILES => 'Text-Balanced-*' },
);
