You shouldn't make it stop. «perl Build.PL» does configuration, not
building. Hence build or runtime requirements are not required to be
satisfied. What you're observing is not an error in any way, but an
essential step in the process. It gives the install tool the chance to
tell the cpan client (or the end user, if he's installing by hand) the
opportunity what dependencies to install.

MakeMaker has something like what Alberto wants, PREREQ_FATAL.  It's
considered a misfeature for exactly the reasons above.  It doesn't let the
configuration step complete so tools cannot resolve the dependencies and
continue building.

Alberto, what are you trying to accomplish here?  There's probably a way to do 
it.

Basically, I depend on Parse::Yapp, and I would like to call `yapp` on Build.PL so I can have the generated .pm file before M::B generates all its data dir.

In fact, I can add that to inc/MyBuilder.pm, but I am afraid the generated .pm will not be installed.

But probably I am just too used to MakeMaker and M::B will work just fine :)

Cheers
