I've tried this with both Module::Build versions 0.21 and 0.25. The install process correctly tracks a dependency on DateTime::Format::Builder, but after DT::F::Builder is installed, it seems to forget that it was trying to install DT::F::MySQL. So the MySQL module never gets installed. Ah, right. The problem is that DT::F::Builder includes the DT::F::MySQL modules under its examples directory, and PAUSE is indexing it. I need to fix this somehow. I just uploaded new distros of DT::F::Builder DT::F::MySQL, and that should fix it. -dave /*=== House Absolute Consulting www.houseabsolute.com ===*/

CPAN will figure out which bundle to grab when you request a specific module such as DT::F::MySQL. (this only works if you're the maintainer of all modules in question...but I can imagine a scenario where you're bundling someone else's module in your examples directory and messing up their cpanitude...whoops) Matt

I don't think bundling basically unrelated modules is really helpful. -dave /*=== House Absolute Consulting www.houseabsolute.com ===*/
