Thanks for the testing, Mark, but I'm not getting the same problem that
you are. Just to check, I downloaded the module in question from CPAN.
This is the complete Makefile.PL:
--------- clip --------------------------
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
# See lib/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm for details of how to influence
# the contents of the Makefile that is written.
WriteMakefile(
'NAME' => 'NetworkInfo::Discovery',
'VERSION_FROM' => 'lib/NetworkInfo/Discovery.pm',
'PREREQ_PM' => {
'Net::Pcap' => 0.04,
'NetPacket' => 0.03,
'Net::Traceroute' => 1.05,
}, # e.g., Module::Name => 1.1
($] >= 5.005 ? ## Add these new keywords supported since 5.005
(ABSTRACT_FROM => 'lib/NetworkInfo/Discovery.pm',
AUTHOR => 'Tom Scanlan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>') : ()),
);
--------- end clip --------------------------
I have tested before without Net::Pcap and had a failure during the "perl
Makefile.PL". Is it possible that you missed this failure and went on
with the make? In any case, I have a PREREQ_PM that is equivilent to
yours. Is there something obviously wrong with my Makefile.PL listed
above?
