Re: [Codestriker-user] Perl-CPAN problems

[David S. <si...@us...>]

Hi Brent,

I'd mail the maintainer, who is Barrie Slaymaker <ba...@sl...> with 
your problem.  Tell him what your platform is and Perl version, include 
your failed tests below and hopefully he can help you.  Please keep us 
posted on how you go, as I can update the documentation if this is a known 
problem.

While you are waiting for a response from him, it still might be worth 
forcing the install to order to make some progress.  Codestriker only uses 
the simple functions from IPC::Run, so chances are it won't matter.

Cheers,
David
