Well, that's partly the thing. I know they'll install any real deps that are required, but there isn't currently a way to make ExtUtils::MakeMaker have build-time dependencies that don't turn into runtime dependencies. I have in fact reported a bug/wishlist/"I'll patch it if you think this is good" ticket on it: http://rt.cpan.org//Ticket/Display.html?id=24159 but until that's fixed, I'd rather not declare Test::Exception as a runtime dependency of my module. -- Paul "LeoNerd" Evans [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ# 4135350 | Registered Linux# 179460 http://www.leonerd.org.uk/
