| Subject: | Installmap 'write' parameter causes problems in subclasses |
I am subclassing Module::Build and have noted that $self->install_map->{read} is well-handled, but not $self->install_map->{write}. My subclass uses a custom packlist, so the 'write' pseudo-install directive matters. Here's what I see:
% Build diff
Can't stat write: No such file or directory
at /perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.0/Module/Build/Base.pm line 1736
The following patch against v0.20 solves this specific problem, but I suspect there may be more places where 'read' and 'write' should be handled similarly. I confirmed that this is not already fixed in 0.20_02.
