It should have. I notice the line in that report that causes me concern: [ERROR] [Tue Nov 17 07:44:32 2009] Build 'prereq_data' failed: No such file or directory No action 'prereq_data' defined, try running the 'help' action. With the version of Module::Build installed on that smoker (0.35) the action 'prereq_data' should be available for the toolchain to determine which prereqs have been defined in the Build.PL I'll copy this email to the module-build mailing list to see if anyone there has any ideas. It may be this is an edge-case and CPANPLUS::Dist::Build should fall back on the older method of determining prereqs by poking about in the _build/ directory.
