Subject: make_arg not passed to make command for make test
The pod says: make_arg arguments that should always be passed to ’make’ Not sure if it is a bug/omission or an enhancement (your choice of course) but if you set make_arg the value is not passed to the make test stage. It may just be a maketest_arg is required. A trivial (although perhaps silly example) of where this caused me a problem is with a module that uses MakeMaker to change the output make file. I set make_arg to "-f name_of_makefile". The make completes successfully but the make test fails (because the make file is not found). Martin -- Martin J. Evans Wetherby, UK
