Subject: Alien::wxWigets does not have a Makefile.PL
With Windows now OK, I've moved on to Linux. On Debian, which comes with CPAN 1.7602 by default, I see the following. --------------------------------------- Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/lib/Alien/wxWidgets/ Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/lib/Alien/wxWidgets/Utility.pm Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/META.yml Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/t/ Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/t/01_load.t Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/t/zz_pod.t Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/MANIFEST.SKIP Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/INSTALL Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/Build.PL Package seems to come without Makefile.PL. (The test -f "/root/.cpan/build/Alien-wxWidgets-0.11/Makefile.PL" returned false.) Writing one on our own (setting NAME to AlienwxWidgets) ---------------------------------------- The build process then, of course, goes on to fail miserably. So you will need to do one of two things. Either a) Add a Makefile.PL that is the equivalent of the Build.PL b) Add a dependency on a version of CPAN.pm new enough to actually be able to handle Build.PL files (preferably the former I guess...)

Added a passthrough Makefile.PL created by Module::Build::Compat. Seems to work for me (but I already had Module::Build installed). Let me know how it works for you. Regards Mattia
