How can I make ExtUtils::Manifest include empty directories? <p>I am trying to build a Perl module for distribution. The directory structure looks like this:</p> <pre><code>demo demo/files demo/examples/example1.pl demo/scripts lib </code></pre> <p>I used this command to generate the MANIFEST file:</p> <pre><code>perl -e "use ExtUtils::Manifest qw(mkmanifest); mkmanifest();" </code></pre> <p>The file is created but all of the empty folders are ignored, so <code>demo/files</code> and <code>demo/scripts</code> are not in the MANIFEST.</p> <p>How can I tell <a href="https://metacpan.org/pod/ExtUtils::Manifest" rel="nofollow"><code>ExtUtils::Manifest</code></a> to include empty folders?</p>
