Ebuilds autogenerated by g-cpan fail repoman checks... badly. This is bad, because many third-party overlays – including mine – internally run repoman under Travis CI to automatically validate the sanity and correctness of incoming pull requests.
Of course, g-cpan breaks that. For example, here's the litany of complaints for a recently generated Test::Directory ebuild:

Please fix these important QA issues first.
RepoMan sez: "Make your QA payment on time and you'll never see the likes of me."
The fatal keyword issues are clearly the worst. Ideally, g-cpan should only add keywords that are actually supported. In this case, removing alpha and riscv from the KEYWORDS variable in the autogenerated Test-Directory-0.051.ebuild file temporarily solves the issue – but only until the next g-cpan -u. <mournful_sigh/>
Likewise, a trivial metadata.xml file should also be autogenerated: e.g.,
