Subject: Makefile.PL needs UNINST=1 on old perls
Because ExtUtils::MakeMaker bundles File::Copy::Recursive and might install it into the core library path, any subsequent installs into sitelib before v5.12 will be shadowed by the stale version that EU::MM installed. (Before v5.12, corelib was before sitelib.) Other distributions bundled with EU::MM are changing Makefile.PL like this commit shows: https://github.com/dagolden/JSON-PP/commit/432d597b66a582c99ee27ead47c69e522a4638f5 Please either add code like this to your Makefile.Pl before any future release. Thanks, David

I'm mistaken. EU::MM bundles F::C::R to help with installing other things, but doesn't actually install it. My apologies for the false alarm. This ticket can be closed.
