Is there a way to tell MakeMaker that I don't want it to automatically install dependencies from CPAN? I'm trying to make some debian packages of perl modules for local use, and `perl Makefile.PL` is trying to install the modules dependencies is there a way to prevent this since run-time dependencies shouldn't matter on a machine simply building the package. The instant case is XML::Feed v0.05 and I can manually hack around it by commenting out auto_install(); in Makefile.PL, and I suppose I could have debian/rules patch Makefile.PL, but I was hoping MakeMaker wasn't so brain dead as to require that. David please CC me.
