Don't index package main

https://metacpan.org/release/DAGOLDEN/Metabase-Fact-0.020/

main is listed in the docs section
because bin/metabase-profile (incorrectly) generates a =head1 NAME \n main -.

I've sent dagolden a bug report and pull req for that,
but i don't think there's ever a reason to index package main.

Even more fun is that if you click on the doc link for main you actually get taken to another dist which has the same problem.
I sent jquelin a pull req for his as well, but you can see by this search that the problem is bigger:

sco has the same problem. I don't feel too strong about introducing all those workarounds for broken dists. It makes the behaviour of the indexer even more obscure than it is today.

I don't think we want a lot of workarounds, but making an exception for main might not be a bad idea. I can see how that might come up here and there.

comparing
https://metacpan.org/release/DAGOLDEN/Metabase-Fact-0.020/
to
http://search.cpan.org/~dagolden/Metabase-Fact-0.021/

under "Documentation" metacpan lists main and sco lists metabase-profile.

So that part still seems "broken" to me...

As far as indexing main I don't disagree with you on the basis that there's probably no good reason for a person to be searching for main.

You need to compare the same version :)

Guess dagolden fixed that.

oops, sorry :-)
