The confusing bit, I think, is that you first have a long configure_requires series of builds that don't get installed, then, later, I think they get "upgraded" to requires and installed -- which is why the second time Oliver run it, the configure_requires are already installed and things work. But somehow, despite all those installs, the Build.PL isn't generating a Build file (or it's generated into the wrong directory). I've been stalled for tuits on a huge patch series for CPAN that cleans up a lot of dependency logic. I don't know if it would help or not. -- David
