| Subject: | nobody vs root |
Below an issue from the mason list where Apache::Test was a show stopper for libapreq.
Would suggest to provide an insanity check in Makefile.PL for root versus nobody etc.

If you install your CPAN modules with 'root' permissions you may actually be hitting a testing problem in Apache::Test which is required for Apache::Request to perform it's tests and install cleanly.
Apache::Test requires that you are either not running 'make test' as 'root' or if you are, that the entire path to and including the apache-test directory is writable by 'nobody' (who it becomes if you are testing as root).
I had trouble with libapreq on RH9 and RH7 until I understood this issue, it now installs cleanly on either distro.
