will things break if i delete the Makefile.PL and define a home in the config?

if so, then my problem is solved!

Nothing should break at all, although if you want to put the home in the config -file- you'll need to make sure ConfigLoader can find it - see the ConfigLoader docs for details of how to do that.

i am not using a config file, but thanks for the pointer.


I dunno about your problem being -solved- though - I'd argue that so far all we're seeing is symptoms of the underlying problem "I haven't read enough documentation yet" (or possibly "we don't have pointers in the right places in the docs for you to find them", in which case I'd love to see a patch adding links to the places you looked and didn't find this info :)


the places i looked are the pod docs for Catalyst.pm, Catalyst::Manual::*, grepping through everything under site_perl/ 5.8.8/Catalyst/*, and searching http://dev.catalystframework.org/wiki/

i found a mention of Makefile.PL on http://dev.catalystframework.org/ wiki/SolvedIssues but its solution is "make sure to put at least an empty Makefile.PL or Build.PL in the application top directory" which is not quite what i was after.

i still haven't found it in the docs, so i am not sure what such a patch would point exactly!
