So I tried
configure_requires 'File::Copy::Recursive' = 0;
require File::Copy::Recursive;
but that still blows up when I run Makefile.PL
That is to be expected. Something outside of Makefile.PL (i.e. the cpan
client) needs to have
In a distribution I would like to use a module (specifically
File::Copy::Recursive ) within Makefile.PL
How can I do this?
How do you do this?
I am using Module::Install so I would be mostly interested in that
solution but if you have this solved

Yes, configure_requires is the way to go. If a CPAN client sees that,
it will fetch the requirement
