Subject: Packaging of List::Util seems harmful
It's probably all Module::Install to blame, I have not yet understood the full mechanism here. I'll only describe the recipe how to reproduce a FAIL report: In the CPAN shell downgrade your List::Util to 1.19 like so: Show quoted text
cpan> install GBARR/Scalar-List-Utils-1.19.tar.gz
This version did not have a List::Util::PP Remove your copy of List::Util::PP if you have one. This can be done in the cpan shell with Show quoted text
cpan> m List::Util::PP
if it is found you get the path to it. Show quoted text
cpan> fforce test POE::Component::RemoteTail
If I do all that then I get a FAIL with Can't locate List/Util/PP.pm in @INC... About ten other cpantesters got this result, you can find them here: http://matrix.cpantesters.org/?dist=POE-Component-RemoteTail-0.01010 I hope this help to track the bug. Let me know if you need further info. Thanks,

It's not only the packaging of List/Util.pm which is problematic — the tarball bundles also YAML.pm without YAML/Base.pm, which nowadays also does not work. Regards, Slaven
