I think that commit was ill-advised. Before that commit, the patching the manifest causes a handful of porting tests to fail *every* time, instead of only failing due to Cwd.pm 10% of the time. And given we're patching, compiling, testing, and then installing on the users machine ( Gentoo ), failing simply because the manifest isn't sorted is not great for the deployment side of the equation. But I'll have to see if the fix works ( hard to know for sure because 10% is low enough you could do dozens of builds without one failing ). I suspect it will, because I'd have suggested a similar patch. -- Kent KENTNL - https://metacpan.org/author/KENTNLThread Previous | Thread Next
