in thread What's the deal with ExtUtils::MakeMaker [build_requires]

OK. So taking your word for it, I upgraded the cpan shell and Bundle::CPAN, and have 1.9600, and then tried a fresh install of MooseX::NonMoose and it did it AGAIN, it tries to install MakeMaker. This is insane! Why the hell does it always want to download and install MakeMaker? WHY? WHY? WHY?
