Subject: Installs fail if YAML is not installed
Installing modules fails when YAML is not installed. I received the following errors when YAML is not installed. YAML Error: Error in require YAML::Loader - Base class package "YAML::Loader::Base" is empty. (Perhaps you need to 'use' the module which defines that package first.) at inc/YAML/Loader.pm line 4 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at inc/YAML/Loader.pm line 4, <$IN> line 1. Compilation failed in require at (eval 12) line 3, <$IN> line 1. Code: Error in require YAML::Loader - Base class package "YAML::Loader::Base" is empty.

Compilation failed in require at (eval 12) line 3, <$IN> line 1. at Makefile.PL line 88 Warning: No success on command[/tmp/bleadperl/bin/perl5.9.5 Makefile.PL] Note (usually harmless): 'YAML' not installed, not dumping to '/tmp/cpan/build/Plagger-0.7.17-UYzsfM.yml' Note (usually harmless): 'YAML' not installed, not dumping to '/tmp/cpan/build/Plagger-0.7.17-UYzsfM.yml' Running make test 'YAML' not installed, cannot parse '/tmp/cpan/build/Plagger-0.7.17-UYzsfM/META.yml'
In 1.88_66 I have revisited all places that work with YAML and made the code a bit prettier and I added tests. I believe I can close this bug now. Thanks!
