We played around with building .debs for all dependencies (mainly because our ISP understandably likes packages), but it's a total PITA IMHO. So we went the local::lib route and never looked back. That way we can distribute and deploy all dependencies with our app. It also makes setting up a development environment totally easy, because you just install local::lib, clone the app git repository (which includes all dependencies) and are pretty much ready to go (assuming that your dev environment is compatible with your production environment which is part of the reason we develop with VMs). --Toby _______________________________________________ List: [email protected] Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
