| Subject: | MakeMaker prereq check failed for Time::Format_XS v1.02 |
Alas, this bug did not happen to me personally, so I cannot report what version of MakeMaker was used, nor can I provide the built makefiles. I apologize.
See http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/272562
One of the CPAN testers tried to build Time::Format_XS v1.02. That module's Makefile.PL is:
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
# See lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm for details of how to influence
# the contents of the Makefile that is written.
WriteMakefile(
'NAME' => 'Time::Format_XS',
'VERSION_FROM' => 'Format_XS.pm', # finds $VERSION
'PREREQ_PM' => {Time::Format => '1.01'}, # e.g., Module::Name => 1.1
'depend' => {'Format_XS.c' => 'format.c'},
($] >= 5.005 ? ## Add these new keywords supported since 5.005
(ABSTRACT_FROM => 'Format_XS.pm', # retrieve abstract from module
AUTHOR => 'Eric Roode <roode@cpan.org>') : ()),
);
As you can see (and as the above test report notes), this version of Time::Format_XS requires Time::Format v1.01 or greater. But apparently, according to the CPAN tester's log, what was downloaded and installed was Time::Format v1.00. This caused the Time::Format_XS build to fail.
Thanks in advance for your attention to this, and please let me know if I can provide any further information.
