| Subject: | Fix: avoid calling auto_install in Makefile.PL |
Hi,
the modules Makefile.PL contains auto_install() whereas it shouldn't.
We've repeatedly been hit by modules doing this and don't want to break
our automated setups.
What the Module::Install manual says in that regard:
``The use of auto_install is strongly discouraged in any distribution to
be uploaded to the CPAN, as the use of it violates the normal CPAN
client to toolchain communication protocol.''
http://search.cpan.org/~adamk/Module-Install-0.80/lib/Module/Install.pod#Module::Install::AutoInstall
I've attached a simple patch that fixes it.
Regards,
Simon
