Wasn't sure about this either.

I would really hate having a long term solution prefering a compatability layer over using Module::Build directly. It is a problem that you can't easily override the test som it might be preferable to make the setting DEB_PERL_BUILDSYSTEM ?= $(shell test -e Build.PL && echo Module::Build) DEB_PERL_BUILDSYSTEM ?= MakeMaker Yes, exisitng packages may fail but it is easily fixed by setting DEB_PERL_BUILDSYSTEM to MakeMaker (or anything but Module::Build). //Makholm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
