Subject: request - env variable to downloaded wxwidgets.tar.gz
In our automated builds of Padre I'd like to be able to install Alien::wxWidgets without network access but using with the standard cpan client. It would be really good if we could set an environment variable (e.g. WXWIDGETS_SOURCE ) that would point to the path of the previously downloaded wxwidgtes.tar.gz file. If the Makefile.PL of Alien::wxWidgets sees this variable it should not even ask the user if she wants to download wxwidgtes or not as the user basically already told it what to use. thanks Gabor

While I was a t it, I also added an AWX_FOO variable for every prompt shown to the user (AWX_BUILD_WX, AWX_SOURCE, AWX_UNICODE, AWX_BUILD_WX_OPENGL), in case you need to override more values. I only performed a quick test; let me know if it works for you. Regards, Mattia
