Normally I'm not that "fertile" with disto uploads, but I was working on Makefile.PL itself and testing full end-to-end installs on Fedora. The problem I had, was that FullAuto has nearly 100 other module dependencies (and their dependencies), and getting all these to behave unattended was a headache. I have no other way to test other than set up my own local CPAN mirror, but that appeared to be more work than the task justified. In hindsight, it "might" have been worth it - but it's water under the bridge now. I'm done with updating Makefile.PL for now. I figured there would be about 6 to 7 builds - not 20. Oh well - thanks for the interest. CPAN has had a lot of work done to it in the last 3-4 years since I last studied it's source code end-to-end. It almost certainly will do more for me now than it did then in coping with FullAuto's extreme complexity. But - I have no time now to repeat that exercise - and besides, I can't count on users being willing to upgrade CPAN to 2.0 just to get FullAuto installed. In case you're curious, FullAuto automates SSH and SFTP more robustly and reliably than ANY other solution currently available anywhere, and provides a complete framework for managing an unlimited number of tasks. FullAuto connections are persistent, and therefore remote state is preserved. Right now FullAuto is managing mission critical data across multiple hosts - all from a single installation on a single host. FullAuto will work with ANY SSH installation anywhere - protocol one or two; it matters not. It also front-ends Firefox with MozRepl to incorporate the most powerful web automation technology also available anywhere. It has been in constant development since 2000. I need to do more documentation work before I release version 1.0.
