Sorry if you mean for the patched status to mean 'patch committed' rather than 'patch submitted', I am not familiar with your project :) I offer you a tuit of the round variety, in exchange for my recent demands of a few of your own tuits in my recent tickets. --End of me wasting time, beginning of important stuffs I have confirmed both of the 'bugs' noted here, that the error message for ignored dependencies tries to print an arrayref, and that the default/fallback setting should be 'ask', not 'ignore', as is selected by firstrun. These changes have been submitted as a pull request to ANDK on github from http://github.com/DCOLLINS/cpanpm/commits/rt45654, because he seems to be the guy who does that sort of thing, as evidenced by the abundance of his face on the commit history. Both have been tested and work; I promise I haven't broken CPAN; no changes here will break anything that was supposed/advertised to work before.
