Hi list,
I am in the process of learning to use Module::Build. While reading
Dave's article on Perl.com, I took his test of installing the Thesaurus
module via the CPAN shell to check how the make compatibility layer
would work.
It caught three missing modules. Unfortunately it only installed one, so
the install of Thesaurus failed. Manually installing the other two fixed
the problem. Why is Thesaurus not requiring these other two if it can't
be installed without them (other than by force)?

Shall I follow them and prepend them to the queue
of modules we are processing right now? [yes]
