| Subject: | A simpler approach |
Rather than rewriting the Makefile.PL, which is fraught with peril and a
one-way process (can you run an upgrade twice?), how about just changing
"use ExtUtils::MakeMaker" into...
use lib "inc";
use EUMM::Upgrade;
Then drop inc/EUMM/Upgrade.pm into the module. EUMM::Upgrade (or
whatever you want to call it) would pass through everything MakeMaker
exports EXCEPT it would export a WriteMakefile() wrapper. That wrapper
would read the args, do the necessary version filtering, and pass it
along to the real WriteMakefile().
