Subject: Makefile.PL: compat code does not work everywhere
There are situations where the compat code in Makefile.PL does not work, e.g. if a test-only smoker system without permissions to install is running. Nowadays it's probably better to use configure_requires or don't have a Makefile.PL at all, as cpan installers are smart enough to provide Module::Build automatically if it's missing (and this works even for test-only smokers).

Co-maintainer of Text::Trim here. I've kept Makefile.PL, but reworked it to conform to more recent E:MM usage. The compat code is gone, so the issue should be resolved and tests fine on my systems. I realize it has been awhile, but if you still have a way to retest, and are inclined to do so, would you mind giving the dev release 1.02_01 a quick buzz? Available from either link: https://metacpan.org/release/RJT/Text-Trim-1.02_01 --OR-- http://cpan.org/authors/id/R/RJ/RJT/Text-Trim-1.02_01.tar.gz Either way, thanks for the report! - Ryan

So far 1.02_01 looks fine on my smoker systems. Regards, Slaven
