Dear Monks,

I am attempting to replicate a Perl hierarchy using an autobundle (snapshot) file.

To test I have two instances of perl same version (5.14.2) and exact installs (both Configure set the same identical servers and no extra modules). On the first version I install Catalyst and all dependencies via a local CPAN. After which I create a bundle and install via this bundle on the identical Perl using the same local mirror. The trouble is installing the autobundle fails. It may appear that the autobundle requests the install of ?'core'? modules and then requests otehr versions of perl to be installed eg 

Running install for module 'vmsish'
The most recent version "1.03" of the module "vmsish"
is part of the perl-5.15.4 distribution. To install that, you need to 
+run
  force install vmsish   --or--
  install F/FL/FLORA/perl-5.15.4.tar.gz
Running make test
  Can't test without successful make
Running make install
  Make had returned bad status, install seems impossible
warnings is up to date (1.12).
warnings::register is up to date (1.02).
Stopping: 'install' failed for 'Bundle::Snapshot_2012_02_21_00'.
Failed during this command:
 DAGOLDEN/Sub-Uplevel-0.22.tar.gz             : make_test NO
 NWCLARK/perl-5.8.6.tar.gz                    : make NO isa perl
 RJBS/perl-5.15.2.tar.bz2                     : make NO isa perl
 FLORA/perl-5.15.4.tar.gz                     : make NO isa perl

On running the cpan command in both cases: 

o conf prerequisites_policy follow
o conf connect_to_internet_ok 0

and the environment variable PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT=1

Any idea what the catch is?

Thanks in advance
