Hello,

Is not the 1st time that I receive a FAIL report from CPAN telling that is
not possible to find module X at @INC, saying to add the PREREQ_PM at
MakeFile.PL.

Well, I always put the PREREQ_PM at MakeFile.PL. So, some testers are
ignoring this informations in the MakeFile and producing error reports!

I want to know if this is only with me or happens for other authors.

For me this is a big problem, 1 because we have a wrong report at CPAN
downgrading our modules, 2nd because we waste time with a bug that doesn''t
exists, 3d we start to lose credibility in a tool of CPAN that is very
important, the bug and test mechanism.

So, please, let's fix that or at least find why it happens.

Regards,
Graciliano M. P.

Just to have the full informations. Here's the error reported:

And here's my MakeFile.PL for this module:

    ($] >= 5.005 ?
      ( ABSTRACT_FROM => 'lib/Scalar/MultiValue.pm',
        AUTHOR        => 'Graciliano M. P. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'
       ) : ()
     ),
);
