Hi Luis,

I agree that in a sense, the system was buggy (albeit only misleading rather 
than actually operating wrongly), which is why I fixed it and that will be 
reflected in the next version. In the meantime, there is the workaround (or 
actual solution, depending on your point of view) of adding to the cpanm 
invocation.

Best regards,
Ed

I understand. My worry is about the new users. They may just turn away
if they believe the system is buggy :( (My students didn't; I
convinced them to stay, or else... :)

Ok.

Ok, I'll try again later.
