  Mon Dec 06 14:00:46 2004 mschwern [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: Implement Makefile.PL PREFIX
At the OSCON 2004 auction folks ponied up a few hundred dollars for Schwern to implement PREFIX for Module::Build. He'd better do it.

I'm going to call this issue "resolved". Anything else from here on is a bug fix. -Ken

Then i guess this is a bug -- the PREFIX argument is now accepted, but totally ignored: [kane@myriad ~...build/PathTools-3.09]$ perlc Build.PL PREFIX=/tmp Creating custom builder _build/lib/MyModuleBuilder.pm in _build/lib Checking whether your kit is complete...

a) You're calling it incorrectly, it's either "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=..." or "perl Build.PL -- prefix ...", as documented. b) --prefix was added in the M::B CVS 0.27_xx sources, so unless you're testing that, it's not going to work. It'll be released this weekend. -Ken
