I find the typical Module::Build opponent’s argument that it’s not mature and won’t be for a long time to be quite disingenious. Only software which has users improves. The argument that you inflict pain on users is understandable, but for simple needs you can avoid that by way of create_makefile_pl => 'traditional'. And while users complain that there is no compatible PREFIX support, I always found it a mess to deal with as a user and applaud the coming of install_base. The other option is Module::Install, which for some reason I can’t bring myself to like, even though everyone using it seems to rave about it. Last I looked, I couldn’t find much documentation, anyway. Makeshifts last the longest. In reply to Re^3: Programming Department
