Subject: Setting --install_base causes HTML docs to be installed.
Module::Build will build HTML docs if it has a destination for them. Any destination. Setting --install_base causes a destination for html docs to come into existence. This is probably incorrect behavior. The logic for deciding to install hmtl or man docs should go like this: if ( the user did not explicitly blank out the HTML path ) AND ( $Config{installhtmldir} is set OR the user explicitly set an HTML install path ) then go ahead an install HTML
My mistake. It causes them to be built but not installed. Definately incorrect behavior. I believe this is because the install_sets determine if they should have an html slot based on $Config{installhtmldir} but building depends on $m->install_destination('html').
Randy fixed this one too. -Ken
