Subject: Perl::Critic / Ubuntu r 8.2 install issues

From: Seven Reeds <seven.reeds [...] gmail.com>
Hi, I have access to two Ubuntu machines. One runs Ubuntu version 10.3 [perl 5.10.1] and the other 8.2 [perl 5.8.8] -- I do not control the 8.2 machine. My real goal is to install HTML::Restrict but Perl::Critic is listed as a pre-req. I easily installed everything on the 10.2 machine but the "P::C" install on the 8.2 machine is failing tests. Ex: $ ./Build test Skipping generating tests because it doesn't look like we're in an author environment. t/00_modules.t ................................

Which version of Perl::Critic are you trying to install and what version of version.pm do you have?

I have 0.94 of version.pm installed. I am trying to install 1.116 of Perl::Critic.

Is this possibly a repeat of 68498 and 69294? If so, adding the missing 'use version' will fix it up. The problem only manifests sometimes because if _anyone_ loads version.pm before this module gets loaded, this module works. Perl::Critic uses Module::Pluggable to load policies, and it appears that on *nix systems Module::Pluggable's load order depends on the vagaries of the underlying file system.

Absent a response from the requester, I'm calling this a a repeat of 68498 and 69294, and marking it patched.
