Bug #82987 for IPC-Run-SafeHandles: old Module::Install

Sun Jan 27 12:27:37 2013 CHORNY [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

old Module::Install

Please update Module::Install to latest version (or remove auto_install). This version of Module::Install has useless question "Auto-install the 1 mandatory module(s) from CPAN?". -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net

Can you explain why Auto-install is a problem requiring a module re-release (other than finding the feature distasteful)? On Sun, Jan 27, 2013 at 12:27:38PM -0500, Alexandr Ciornii via RT wrote: Show quoted text

I'm not sure if this requires a release. This question requires human intervention and installation does not proceed before it is answered. Newer version of M::I do not ask it when run under CPAN/CPANPLUS. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net

Does it not honor PERL_MM_USE_DEFUALT? Show quoted text

It uses prompt from EU::MM, so it should. But not all CPAN users will have it set. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net

To be clear, are you asking us to re-release with a newer version of Module::Install with an updated AutoInstall or are you asking us to remove AutoInstall? --

I'm asking you to update M::I before next release. In general, M::I has many improvements from version 0.68. Moving Test::More from requires into test_requires and adding META.* is also a good idea. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net
