Re: [Module::Build] Document install_base_relpaths

[Stephen A. <spa...@gm...>]

Hi,

This feature is one of the primary reasons I subclassed Module::Build
and made App::Build (on CPAN).  I am looking for the right way to
contribute this feature to Module::Build itself because I think it belongs
there.

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=3D9741242&forum_id=
=3D10905
http://search.cpan.org/~spadkins/App-Build/lib/App/Build.pm

I guess I will wait until the topic comes up again after 0.28.
