Subject: | Endless loop: dialog during Makefile.PL a trap for smoke machines |
When calling the Makefile.PL of
RONALDWS/LockFile-NetLock-0.31.tar.gz with PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1 it runs
into a fast endless loop asking
FTP host where you have directory creation privileges. []
Could not verify host name - try again?(y|n)
FTP host where you have directory creation privileges. []
Could not verify host name - try again?(y|n)
FTP host where you have directory creation privileges. []
Could not verify host name - try again?(y|n)
That's because the dialogue does not converge ever.
It would be nice to have a check for the endless loop situation or have
the questions changed so that they converge with the default.
Thanks,
