The file that I uploaded is a set of patches for the stable (5.8.0) perl source distribute so isn't a module. Its not the sort of thing I would expect would fall into your automated testing suite as the dependancies are huge. It requires a specific perl distribution source tree, a cross-compilation toolchain for the arm platform etc... Is there any way to exempt an upload from this testing? or should I just ignore the test results that come back. Conceavably I could install some basic testing (such as testing the integrity of the files, checking the patches apply cleanly etc). At the moment this is done at compile-time. Sadly, cross-compiling testing is evil and almost impossible. Even perl's "make test" will always fail. Red
