Set your CPAN/CPANPLUS to prefer Build.PL over Makefile.PL and the problem will go away. It's a bug in Module::Build::Compat -- it shouldn't care if some idiot said "requires => { perl => '5.6.0' }" instead of "5.006" because the perl key doesn't go into PREREQ_PM in the generated Makefile.PL anyway. There's a ticket for it -- I just haven't had a chance to deal with it. Module::Build::Compat must die. David
