Bug #113560 for HiPi: The prerequisites in Build.PL don't match real prerequisites

I'm attempting to install HiPi on a sneaker-net only Raspberry Pi. Finding out the definitive list of prerequisites to copy to a thumb drive and bring to the Pi is essential. Instead of just listing and testing the prerequisites, the build process instead attempts to make network connections and install stuff on it's own. That doesn't work. After installing ALL of the modules, and their prerequisites, listed in Build.PL: requires => { 'ExtUtils::ParseXS' => '0', 'ExtUtils::XSpp' => '0', 'Try::Tiny' => '0', 'Device::SerialPort' => '0', 'File::Slurp' => '0', 'UNIVERSAL::require' => '0', 'Class::Accessor' => '0', 'File::chdir' => '0', 'IO::String' => '0', 'IO::Stringy' => '0', 'File::Copy::Recursive' => '0', 'PAR::Dist' => '0', 'LWP::UserAgent' => '0', 'Text::Patch' => '0', 'Text::Diff' => '0', 'Module::Info' => '0', 'threads' => '0', 'threads::shared' => '0', 'Thread::Queue' => '0', 'IO::Multiplex' => '0', 'IO::Epoll' => '0', }, I find that there are other dependencies, like Sub::Name and Alien::wxWidgets. And will I find more fun things lurking once I get past those?
