Not sure what happened. My last post didn't show up (an empty slot for it did though - which is kind of strange). So, I will repeat my comments.

Unless there is some way of excluding modules from ugrading when executing the upgrade command, I can't just ignore the B::C problem. I have set halt_on_failure so any installs I make don't continue if a dependent module fails to build. So, I can't complete the upgrade until I figure out how to get past the B::C upgrade problem
