Please check if your module depends on Module::Install for its build process - Automatically finding its dependencies is unsupported, please specify them manually using the 'depends' option. ====================================================================== On Sep 5, 2007, at 3:54 PM, Frank Lichtenheld wrote:

But the CPAN untarring produced: XML-XPathEngine-0.08/Makefile.PL. And doing an 'ls' on the above created dir reveals the Makefile.PL and that Makefile.PL uses MakeMaker, not Module::Install. Is this a bug?Don't know, but your mail doesn't make sense: The error says "Makefile.PL did not return a true value", not that it doesn't exist...
