The problem is that several system directories are actually symlinked to directories in /private. /root, /tmp, and /var are all actually /private/root, /private/tmp and /private/var on Mac OS X. If you .cpan directory is in any of those directories, the install of Path-Class fails on OS X.

Looking at the test, it would fail anytime Cwd::cwd is not absolute. The following patch should skip this test in those cases. --- t/01-basic.t.old 2009-06-14 22:35:12.000000000 -0500 +++ t/01-basic.t 2009-07-13 20:31:45.000000000 -0500 @@ -79,7 +79,10 @@ ok dir(''), '/'; ok dir(), '.'; ok dir('', 'var', 'tmp'), '/var/tmp'; - ok dir()->absolute, dir(Cwd::cwd())->cleanup; + skip( + ! dir(Cwd::cwd())->is_absolute ? 0 : "Cwd::cwd not absolute", + dir()->absolute, dir(Cwd::cwd())->cleanup + ); ok dir(undef), undef; }

I don't think that's the way to go - Cwd::cwd() should always return an absolute path of course. Is the problem just that one path is cleaned up, and the other is not?

I've fixed this for the next release, using the resolve() method.  Thanks.
