Subject: will not build
Trying to build CGI::Expand 1.06 on OS X (10.4.4) I get the following error: $ perl Makefile.PL Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Writing Makefile for CGI::Expand $ make Makefile:798: *** missing separator. Stop. The relevant section of the Makefile is: DEBVNAME = $(shell $(PERLRUN) -le 'print lc(shift)' $(DISTVNAME)) deb : debdir -cd $(DEBVNAME) && debuild -us -uc I'm sure it's something stupid and simple to fix, but I don't have the time or energy to debug Makefile issues ATM. :-) Please let me know if you need more info. Dave

I think the tabs in the postamble were being turned to spaces during make dist. Could you try this fixed version and let me know if it works. https://pause.perl.org/pub/PAUSE/authors/id/B/BO/BOWMANBS/CGI-Expand-2.01.tar.gz Lesson for me: make disttest Thanks for the bug report, Brad
I'll assume that the updated version works.
