Looking at the output, it indeed looks like CPAN.pm is simply not picking up on the prereqs of CPANPLUS. This is weird, as they are clearly listed as show below. They should also be stated in a comment field in the Makefile (you could check that), which is where CPAN.pm (iirc) parses them from again. If that does not happen, you've found the bug in CPAN.pm.. otherwise, i'm not sure what's going on. [...] Show quoted text

This is clearly due to missing prereqs, so the error must be somewhere between the 'perl Makefile.PL' and 'make test' stage.
