Subject: t/41distribution.t fails on stock Fedora 14
In the CPAN shell, a 'test CPAN' fails with : t/41distribution.t ..... 1/19 # Failed test (t/41distribution.t at line 151) # got: '' # expected: 'HASH' # Failed test (t/41distribution.t at line 161) # Failed test (t/41distribution.t at line 151) # got: '' # expected: 'HASH' # Failed test (t/41distribution.t at line 161) # Looks like you failed 4 tests of 19. Installing, or even just 'test'ing Parse::CPAN::Meta allows the test to pass. PS This may be the result of some core modules being provided in separate RPMs on Fedora 14. It seems that CPAN may want to depend on Parse::CPAN::Meta explicitly, or an alternative parser, if there is one. This is perl 5, version 12, subversion 3 (v5.12.3) built for i386-linux-thread-multi ... with YAML 0.72 I tested this in a clean bash environment with no local::lib or perlbrew or any other voodoo.

This is correct on any distribution without Parse::CPAN::Meta.
