Hi Michael,

> I am trying to upload a distribution through PAUSE, and am getting an i=
ndexer error. Can you help me figure out what is going on=3F This is admi=
ttedly a fairly trivial distribution, but I=E2=80=99d like to make it ava=
ilable if at all possible.

The =22problem=22 is that your release doesn't include any indexable pack=
ages.

In lib/App/Perlwhich.pm you just need to add:

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0package App::perlwhich;
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 1;

And that should do it.

Cheers,
Neil
