Hi, I was trying to install Time::y2038 but it cops out where it's trying to build a test program, claiming: "Can't locate object method "cbuilder" via package "Local::Module::Build" at inc/Local/Module/Build.pm line 13." However: cpan[4]> install ExtUtils::CBuilder ExtUtils::CBuilder is up to date (0.24). Not sure where to go from here. Any suggestions? Here's the complete output: cpan[1]> install Time::y2038 CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.18) Going to read /root/.cpan/Metadata Database was generated on Wed, 14 Jan 2009 10:26:55 GMT Running install for module 'Time::y2038' Running make for M/MS/MSCHWERN/Time-y2038-20081111.tar.gz CPAN: Digest::SHA loaded ok (v5.46) CPAN: Compress::Zlib loaded ok (v2.009) Checksum for /root/.cpan/sources/authors/id/M/MS/MSCHWERN/Time-y2038-20081111.ta r.gz ok Scanning cache /root/.cpan/build for sizes .......................................................---------------------DONE DEL(1/18): /root/.cpan/build/IO-Compress-Zlib-2.009 DEL(2/18): /root/.cpan/build/Compress-Zlib-2.009 DEL(3/18): /root/.cpan/build/IO-Zlib-1.09 DEL(4/18): /root/.cpan/build/Archive-Tar-1.38 DEL(5/18): /root/.cpan/build/Archive-Zip-1.23 DEL(6/18): /root/.cpan/build/libnet-1.22 DEL(7/18): /root/.cpan/build/Term-ReadLine-Perl-1.0302 DEL(8/18): /root/.cpan/build/YAML-0.66 DEL(9/18): /root/.cpan/build/Text-Glob-0.08 DEL(10/18): /root/.cpan/build/CPAN-1.9205 DEL(11/18): /root/.cpan/build/File-Which-0.05 DEL(12/18): /root/.cpan/build/CPAN-1.9301-Wvoxs0 CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.66) DEL(13/18): /root/.cpan/build/CPAN-1.9301-Wvoxs0.yml DEL(14/18): /root/.cpan/build/Astro-0.69-UIl6CR DEL(15/18): /root/.cpan/build/Astro-0.69-UIl6CR.yml DEL(16/18): /root/.cpan/build/libwww-perl-5.822-u0XICn DEL(17/18): /root/.cpan/build/libwww-perl-5.822-u0XICn.yml DEL(18/18): /root/.cpan/build/Params-Util-0.35-rUmvv8 Time-y2038-20081111/ Time-y2038-20081111/Build.PL Time-y2038-20081111/Changes Time-y2038-20081111/check_max.c Time-y2038-20081111/inc/ Time-y2038-20081111/inc/Local/ Time-y2038-20081111/inc/Local/Module/ Time-y2038-20081111/inc/Local/Module/Build.pm Time-y2038-20081111/INSTALL Time-y2038-20081111/lib/ Time-y2038-20081111/lib/Time/ Time-y2038-20081111/lib/Time/y2038/ Time-y2038-20081111/lib/Time/y2038/Everywhere.pm Time-y2038-20081111/lib/Time/y2038.pm Time-y2038-20081111/lib/Time/y2038.xs Time-y2038-20081111/MANIFEST Time-y2038-20081111/MANIFEST.SKIP Time-y2038-20081111/META.yml Time-y2038-20081111/munge_config Time-y2038-20081111/SIGNATURE Time-y2038-20081111/t/ Time-y2038-20081111/t/everywhere.t Time-y2038-20081111/t/time.t Time-y2038-20081111/t/timegm.t Time-y2038-20081111/typemap Time-y2038-20081111/y2038/ Time-y2038-20081111/y2038/time64.c Time-y2038-20081111/y2038/time64.h Time-y2038-20081111/y2038/time64_config.h.in CPAN: File::Temp loaded ok (v0.20) CPAN: Time::HiRes loaded ok (v1.86) CPAN.pm: Going to build M/MS/MSCHWERN/Time-y2038-20081111.tar.gz Checking whether your kit is complete...

I appear to have found a fix. This line: inc/Local/Module/Build.pm: my $cb = $self->cbuilder; needs to be this: inc/Local/Module/Build.pm: my $cb = $self->_cbuilder; and all is groovy.

same problem, fixed with the same solution

I tapped up the minimum version of Module::Build to 0.2809 which is when ->cbuilder() was introduced. That should cover the problem.
