found 528235 7.2.12 thanks So it's not as simple as just unconditionally adding the option. (#528647)
Before I jump into another half-thought-out fix, is there any chance that Module::Install could be fixed to not need --skipdeps on Debian, or given a way to disable the behavior that can be passed into any Makefile.PL? (Perhaps an env var?) I have doubts about relying on the location of a filename to determine if Module::Install is used. The file could exist, be cruft, and Module::Install not really be used, or it could easily exist in a slightly different location. Checking if Module::Install is use'd in the Makefile.PL is likewise prone to both false positives and negatives. -- see shy jo
