That is correct, you're supposed to pass it as --installdirs=vendor. Module::Build accepts both (and some other forms), in the Build.PL spec we decided to only support a subset of the possibilities. Sorry about that, but we really couldn't reasonably support all options in a sane way. If you ran into this because you're using cpanspec (I remember you're a Mageia packager), I already submitted a pull request at https://github.com/silug/cpanspec/pull/5, but the author seems non-responsive.

Thanks! By using --installdirs=vendor and --destdir, I was able to successfully build the package inside the RPM .spec, and to bootstrap it and other packages. I added the correct synopsis for that here: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Perl_policy Show quoted text

I think we're using https://metacpan.org/module/CPANPLUS::Dist::Mageia (and higher level tools - http://blogs.perl.org/users/shlomi_fish/2012/08/tech-tip-how-to-package-and-maintain-cpan-distributions-in-mageia.html ) instead of cpanspec, but I'll see about converting the Build.PL recipe to it in C-D-Mageia .
