Oh yes I have. =)
perl Build.PL mason_verbose=1
or
Build test mason_verbose=1
Either would do the trick. I think my 0.05_01 may have broken proper
argument processing, but it's definitely fixed in the forthcoming 0.06.
By the way, I'm trying to plan an interface for overriding arbitrary
%Config values on the command line. I think I like the following:
perl Build.PL config-cc=/usr/bin/gcc config-gzip=/my/private/gzip
An alternative which I don't think I like as much is:
perl Build.PL config='cc=/usr/bin/gcc gzip=/my/private/gzip'
The reason I don't like it is that it's going to be a quoting nightmare
if any of the values need to contain spaces or quotes.
In 0.06 I've gotten %Config separated from user args, and I'm much
happier about it.
