Buildable, Testable, Installable Git repo for Perl modules

tl;dr We might need a standard build file to build a module from Git repository, especially for the ones using Module::Install or dzil.

The problem

When an author of CPAN module uses an authoring tool that generates build files when shipping them to CPAN, the git repository usually doesn't have enough files to build, test and install the module.

For example, if dzil (Dist::Zilla) is used, the repository only conatains dist.ini and there's no Makefile.PL or Build.PL so standard CPAN installers or Continuous Integration tools don't know how to run tests on it.

# Install ARCH Linux with encrypted file-system and UEFI
# The official installation guide (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installation_Guide) contains a more verbose description.

# Download the archiso image from https://www.archlinux.org/
# Copy to a usb-drive
dd if=archlinux.img of=/dev/sdX bs=16M && sync # on linux

# Boot from the usb. If the usb fails to boot, make sure that secure boot is disabled in the BIOS configuration.

I have a Lenovo P50 ThinkPad that I am issued at work.  I run the latest Fedora on my primary laptop for years but
have avoided running the NVIDA graphics drivers because installation was manual and could break with kernel updates.

I updated my personal Dell XPS 15 to use the new NVIDIA drivers that are now supported in Fedora 28 I think these were suppose to come from rpm-fusion but it looks like they are in Fedora 28 tree, I could be wrong.  The install was as easy as just installing the nvidia-driver package and reboot.  This worked without any issues.  I could launch nvidia-settings and glxgears without any issues.

The purpose of this Gist post is to document how I got the NVIDIA drivers from Fedora 28 on the P50.  It was not as easy as installing nvidia-driver and rebooting.  

For starters, here are the specs for the P50:
