  Sat Nov 24 14:45:16 2007 SREZIC [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: doc/Makefile.PL does not work with BSD make
The doc/Makefile.PL uses $< which is not portable across make versions. Especially it is not working with BSD make. $< evaluates to the empty string in this situation which causes the Makefile to hang. It is more safe to use the explicite source and target filenames instead of the special variables $< and $@. Regards, Slaven

This will be fixed on next release (0.39). Thank you. On Sat Nov 24 14:45:16 2007, SREZIC wrote: Show quoted text
