module-build, as with many perl modules that are part of perl core, is "dual-lifed": it *also* exists in CPAN, and may be updated more often than perl core, and other modules may require that newer version. Having a separate fink package for the module is the only easy way to make that newer version available. dan -- Daniel Macks dma...@netspace.org http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Are you an open source citizen?
