But I'm led to ask: Is Module::Build really robust enough to switch from MakeMaker to Module::Build?
You think MakeMaker is robust? Hahahahahaha
That's funny.
What Dave is trying to say is, yes, Module::Build is robust enough to switch from MakeMaker. In fact, it's more robust. Indeed, MakeMaker maintainer Michael Schwern has said, "MakeMaker is dead, long live Module::Build!" So expect it to become the standard in the not-too-distant future.
Thankyou for a sensible response David. While MakeMaker's maintainer and others may say long live Module::Build, I keep having trouble with it whereas I've never had trouble with MakeMaker. Thus my question.
This however does not solve my problem. Unless Module::Build is already installed it goes whacko and does not install everything that it should. I've no intention of delving into its internals, however if anyone is concerned with this problem I'm happy to provide install logs or whatever is needed.
