That would be great to just have the perl-build module available. What time
frame were you looking to do this? and would this module be (dev)?
I really want to move away from ExtUtils::MakeMaker even the developer
of the software suite does not want maintain it no more.

* click on MakeMaker is DOOMED!

really kind of silly why we want to continue to use MakeMaker any way
just my $0.02 worth. I may volunteer an module for this and you could make
modifications to it if you so desire.

Thanks for a quick response.

It is still not available. Mainly because it has some really nasty
dependencies to other modules which currently would require to break
our "perl-xxx" packaging layout. But I'm planning to add Module::Build,
in the worst case into a "perl-build" package which just contains this
module.
