Indeed it does. However, the Date::Simple Makefile.PL shows that simply specifying a noxs argument should avoid that and build a pure-perl version instead.

    Thanks hippo

    How can I get cpan or cpanm to use the noxs switch when it calls Makefile.pl. The question has been asked before but doesn't seem to have an answer - How to pass options to Makefile.PL when using cpanm?

    I've tried cpanm Date::Simple --force and cpanm Date::Simple noxs but it's not that simple...

    Also I've tried to follow this article but cannot find where Makefile.pl is located to run it directly.

      "cannot find where Makefile.pl is located to run it directly.

      Download and extract the tar file, or cpanm --look Date::Simple, follow the instructions.
