Hi there,

I am not sure why but the cpan install is failing on my osx 10.5.7 machine. Looks like force is an option is that the recommended way to go?



Hi,
That's what I've done in the past. It seems Mac::Carbon has a failing test, which cascades to File::HomeDir. http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=File-HomeDir for more info on the tests.
