That's part of DateTime.pm, so I'm confused. DT::Format::Mail does not use DT::Helpers directly, it's only used by DateTime.pm, which is in turn a prereq of DT::Format::Mail. Looks like you don't have DateTime.pm installed. -dave /*=================================================== VegGuide.Org www.BookIRead.com Your guide to all that's veg.

Sorry, I should have given more information. I'm using CPANPLUS, and I use the "prefer Makefile.PL" option. Apparently CPANPLUS does not see your prerequisites in that case. I've never used Module::Build, so I do not know what the solution might be. (However, 99.9% of modules on CPAN install fine for me, so there must be some solution!)

Hmm, did you try upgrading to the latest CPANPLUS? It sounds more like a bug with that module, or something in the installation toolchain. -dave /*=================================================== VegGuide.Org www.BookIRead.com Your guide to all that's veg.
