Comment (by bdubbs):
I can confirm that the build directories are not removed. I have done a
complete install (all modules in the book) and have 168 subdirectories in
the build/ directory. The total space used is 286M.
In addition the statement "You may still need to install dependent library
packages before running the automated installation method." is not
correct. I have not needed to do that. I do not remember ever needing to
do it.
I know of three issues with using the cpan installation method:
{{{
libxml2 must be installed before XML::LibXML -- documented
libxslt must be installed before XML::LibXSLT -- documented
SGMLSpm must be installed using the standard installation method using
Build.PL:
perl Build.PL && ./Build && sudo ./Build install
}}}
I'll note that using the cpan method tasks me about 30 minutes to install
all modules in the book even without scripting. (I probably ought to do
that.)
