Why die on missing prereqs? I use a META.yml because someone said
that it's
easier to determine prereqs without running my Build.PL. If the
tester
client ignores that, what good is it?
I really meant you can die on missing non-perl perequisites (e.g. a
library, a binary, a database, etc.).
Yeah, I do that for GraphViz::Data::Structure (for graphviz) - and I
still get FAILs. So how does one get round that?
