Re: Help needed diagnosing 'perl Build.PL Build'

For whatever reason, I think it's assuming that "Build.PL" is a PL
file to create during "make".  Perhaps particularly old versions of
EU::MM don't exclude Build.PL.

I notice that my generated Makefile.PL files all have this line:

'PL_FILES' => {}

I suspect that keeps older EU::MM from thinking that Build.PL should
be automatically included.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
David
