Use Module::Install like a real man. All other build systems are deprecated... M::I is both easier and more powerful and the new version of module-starter, supports it to. There is no reason to not use it. Check out Module::Install::Scripts, which is part of M::I and offers
prompt_script()
Opt-in installer
install_script()
installs the script

That's a bold statement. I think there's probably a lot of E::U and E::B users that would disagree. Personally, I have no intention of switching any time soon.
I think it's safe to say that M::I is easier, possibly even better, but "deprecated?" I doubt that.
