leocharre has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Has anybody played with mkprereqinst on cpan? It looks over your dist and creates a prereqinst.pl file supposedly run after your Makefile.PL (or build) to ... install .. prerequisites..

I was thinking, if the file output were 000_prereqinst.PL it would automatically run with the normal make procedure.. Can you think of some reason why that would not be desireable with this program?

  • Comment on why does mkprereqinst write a "prereqinst.pl" instead of a "000_prereqinst.PL"?
