| Subject: | INSTALLDIRS needs to be 'perl' for >= perl-5.9.3 |
Hi,
Archive::Tar is part of the core distribution since perl-5.9.3, and
is thus installed in lib/<version>/Archive/Tar*.
However, the install dir for the Archive::Tar CPAN distribution is
currently lib/site_perl/<version>/. This means you can install newer
versions of Archive::Tar, but perl-5.9.3 and later will still only
find the old version.
The attached patch (against A::T 1.29) will set EU::MM's INSTALLDIRS
variable depending on the perl version, to ensure the module is
installed in the correct location for all perl versions.
