Subject: PREREQ_FATAL not needed
Gtk3-Helper (and possible other Gtk3-* distributions of yours) sets PREREQ_FATAL in Makefile.PL. This option should only be used in special situations, see the ExtUtils::MakeMaker documentation: It is extremely rare to have to use "PREREQ_FATAL". Its use by module authors is strongly discouraged and should never be used lightly. So I think it should also be removed here. The CPAN toolchain modules usually do the right thing if prerequisites are missing (i.e. installing everything automatically). This does not not work if PREREQ_FATAL is set. Regards, Slaven
Fixed in 0.06 Thanks.
