Less of a problem these days. Parse::CPAN::Meta is now in the core, so CPAN.pm now does configure_requires processing out of the box. Of course, you'll still get problems on older installations that have somehow missed out on installing any YAML modules or a sufficiently recent CPAN.pm. >If not, it will run Build.PL anyway, and will fail. This failure is very transparent. It says which module it failed to load, which is a nice big clue for the user to install it first (manually handling the dependency). So overall I wouldn't worry about it. -zefram
