This does not seem to be the case. CPANrun (ActiveState's build tool) does appear to be trying to resolve the dependency on Module::Build. You can see this by looking at the failure logs of some of the PPMs (DateTime::Locale is one). The dependency resolution is failing due to a change in CPAN.pm's interface that CPANrun doesn't appear to know how to handle. -- Michael G Schwern [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pobox.com/~schwern/ Here's hoping you don't harbor a death wish!
