Hello Monks-

I'm trying to install WWW::Mechanize::Pluggable, and it pulls in Data::Dump::Streamer. which make installs without any apparent hitch:

Running make install
Files found in blib/arch: installing files in blib/lib into architectu
+re dependent library tree
Writing /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8/auto/Data/Dump/Streamer/.packlist
Appending installation info to /usr/lib/perl/5.8/perllocal.pod
  YVES/Data-Dump-Streamer-2.03-30.tar.gz
  /usr/bin/make install  -- OK

[download]

But, there's only the one file written: .packlist, and this file is zero-length. CPAN.pm then proceeds to attempt installation of WWW::Mechanize::Pluggable, which of course fails on the first 'use Data::Dump::Streamer;'

What's the best way to find out what's wrong? How do I find out if this is a problem with my system or with Data::Dump::Streamer itself?
