I see the following on a FreeBSD system: $ perl5.20.2 -Mblib t/makesimple.t usage: make [-BeikNnqrstWwX] [-C directory] [-D variable] [-d flags] [-f makefile] [-I directory] [-J private] [-j max_jobs] [-m directory] [-T file] [-V variable] [variable=value] [target ...] 1..0 # SKIP No make found in env. But there is a make available: $ which make /usr/bin/make And there's even GNU make: $ which gmake /usr/local/bin/gmake Problem is probably that there's no -v switch in BSD make, and so the "make -v" command fails with a usage printed to stderr. There's nothing in stdout. A better check to see if a "make" is available would be to walk over the entries in $ENV{PATH} and check for a "make". Or use File::Which or a similar module.
