Subject: Problem building Cwd.o with latest version.pm
This is probably the fault of version.pm, not PathTools, but my failure happened when installing PathTools so I will report it here. I will send a separate email to John Peacock about this. Today I installed the latest version.pm, v0.56. Shortly afterward I tried to install the latest Cwd.pm, v3.16. I got this from within CPANPLUS using Module::Build 0.27_06. This is Apple's Perl 5.8.6 on Mac OS X 10.4.5 on a G5 Powermac.

I don't have access to that platform, and I cannot reproduce. Some things to try: 1) upgrade CPANPLUS and Module::Build (to 0.27_07) and try again; 2) Try again in manual mode. Show quoted text

This situation doesn't make any sense to me - how would installing Cwd cause compile failures in version.xs? Or has the problem magically gone away? -Ken

Let's just close this bug and I'll open a new one if I can reproduce it. I had hoped that there was an obvious explanation, but apparently not... -- Chris
