From: David Wheeler <david [...] kineticode.com>
Subject: 0.050_01 Cannot validate Build.PL perl version spec
Date: Sun, 5 Dec 2004 10:43:32 -0800
Module::Build users sometimes specify a perl version in their requirements: requires => { perl => '5.6.1' }, I guess CPANPLUS doesn't know this, because it tries to manage it as a module: Creating new 'Build' script for 'XML-Genx' version '0.07' [ERROR] Unable to find 'perl' in the module tree -- unable to satisfy prerequisites I *think* that the required perl version is the only thing that will appear in the requirements that is not a module, but you might want to ask module-build-general@lists.sourceforge.net to be sure.

I just installed a module that uses the perl requirement in Build.PL with 0.50_02 and it seemed to work. Did you fix it, or has it become a heisenbug?

As i thought i'd already mentioned, fixing a more generic problem about dependencies + module::build also fixed the 'perl' requirement problem we had.. so yes, it's meant to be gone :) -- Jos Boumans How do I prove I am not crazy to people who are? CPANPLUS http://cpanplus.sf.net
