in reply to How to patch this module?
If you're going to manually patch a distribution, you forego most of the automation that CPAN provides you and have to do the steps manually:
- Download and unpack the distribution. If in a hurry, you can let CPAN do that for you:
cpanm --look Devel::CallParser
or
cpan CPAN> look Devel::CallParser </li> <li>Patch the distribution: <c> patch < rt110623.patch - Test the distribution:
perl Makefile.PL make make test
- Install the distribution:make install
- Keep a backup of the current directory, for the next installation
Update: Corrected invocations of tools, as spotted by ibm1620
