Re: cpan and cpanplus and toolchain

It sounds like a bug related to Scalar::Util and Moose, because you dared to use ExtUtils::MakeMaker instead of Module::Build. I'll bet your problems go away if you install the latest Module::Build (good luck...) and then do

perl ./Build.PL
./Build install

Catalyst's helper scripts to create an application produced a Makefile.PL. All the docs and walk-troughs use that. There's no Build.PL in this directory.	[reply]

Thanks. I see that makepl_arg is already set to `[INSTALLDIRS=site]`. I don't understand why I can issue `cpan -i` fine now, but the makefile can't do the same me thing for me.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You need to make sure that the Makefile.PL doesn't just call Module::Build. You can put a `die "MB";` at the start of Module/Build.pm to be sure it's not a Module::Build SNAFU.	[reply] [d/l]
