Hello, I am using Module::Install to build a MakeMaker-style Makefile.PL

I have some additional behavior coded up in a make target called sakila: 

postamble <<EOPOST;
sakila:
    ./etc/install_sakila.pl
EOPOST

[download]
that I would like to run when "make" is run on this unpacked distribution. How can I have "make sakila" run when a user (or CPAN.pm) runs "make" on this distribution?





The mantra of every experienced web application developer is the same: thou shalt separate business logic from display. Ironically, almost all template engines allow violation of this separation principle, which is the very impetus for HTML template engine development.
