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

Of those who have installed Bundle::Math, how many runs through cpan did it take to resolve the dependency chain? Would it have been better to use Cpanminus? I've no particular complaint, just wondering... Likewise does anyone happen to know if Bundle::Math is a super set of Bundle::Math::Interface?

    It should take one

    this might be faster ppm install Bundle-Math Bundle-Math-Interface

    Would it have been better to use Cpanminus?

    cpanminus isn't required for non interactivity, but it works for that purpose

    Doubtful. If you visit Bundle::Math, Bundle::Math::Interface you can see they list different modules.

      Duh, Bundle::Math lists Bundle::Math::Interface
