in reply to Re: CPAN + PREFIX + Module::Build
in thread CPAN + PREFIX + Module::Build

There's a reason why INSTALLBASE is not yet documented. MakeMaker and Module::Build are still out of sync on the behavior. MakeMaker needs to be fixed to use INSTALL_BASE to match --install_base and Module::Build has to fix it so modules go into lib/perl5/ and programs into bin/ (already fixed in the alphas).

This should all be sorted out with Module::Build 0.28 and the next MakeMaker. While I would have liked this to happen before OSCON it doesn't look like MB's going to be ready in time.
