Hi MM-Team, hi Michael, I'm trying to make a nice CPAN-package called Goo (see http://thegoo.org) and have serious problems using ExtUtils::MakeMaker (MM).
Now the problems may very well result from my inexperience with MM, as I never needed anything more than just a NAME, VERSION_FROM & AUTHOR Makefile.PL OTOH, MM documentation - while (or because) extensive - is quite terse. All I need to do is to hook up own perl code to the "make install" part of the generated Makefile. I don't find anything in the docs. Basically, there is this "skel" directory whose contents I'd need to copy to /usr/lib/Goo and to create a link (or copy where links not available) from goo to goo.pl. That's all. Simple. But not with MM - and my knowledge. I thought I could abuse some of the INST* variables to get make install do the copying. But instead it blew up by copying the whole lib to skel and installed that under /usr/lib/Goo -- best regards Marcel Holan project manager R&D +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ PetaMem s.r.o., Ocelarska 1, 190 00 Praha, Czech Republic - www.petamem.com
