But Module::Install::Catalyst uses File::Copy::Recursive which just copies entire directories into blib. And it does that copy when running Makefile.PL, not at "make" time so, I guess I can just prune them in Makefile.PL. M::I::Catalyst basically copies almost all directories found at the top level into blib. It would indeed be much nicer if it worked like normal make. Module::Install::Catalyst, as I mentioned before, can take a long time to run with large distributions -- like a few minutes. I would much prefer copying only files when they change at make time, of course. I also notice .svn directories end up in blib with my "share" directories in other distributions (I use File::ShareDir). After I run "make" the .svn directories only end up in blib/lib/share/, not any other directories. So, in that case I'd need some way to prune the .svn dirs after running make. -- Bill Moseley mose...@hank.org
