Running 'make > realclean' thereafter fails. Dunno if it's worth fixing... Yeah, the expectation is that the user will do *either* perl Makefile.PL make ... make realclean *or* perl Build.PL Build ... Build realclean but mixing the two, i.e. perl Makefile.PL ... Build realclean will leave an orphan Makefile around. As for a fix, it's probably not a great idea to remove the Makefile when doing 'Build realclean', but maybe the subsequent failure modes could be cleaned up a bit. -Ken |
