Hi,
Contacting the author of CPANPLUS::Dist::RPM might be a good idea - yep, did that, no reply so far...
I also looked at the code of this module and did some debugging:
'writing specfile for 'CPANPLUS::Dist::RPM=HASH(0x50c0790)->distname'' is only an output error
the main problem (for me) is that the module does not honour the --skiptest parameter. As I'm behind firewalls, they fail (for Net::Ping). Other modules with no tests that require internet connectivity get built fine. But this is still a nuisance.
Regards,
