So despite having heard over and over from users who were
annoyed, you decided that making a statement has greater value
than not antagonising your users. OK then.

Err, thanks for your loving care and gently guiding nudge, but no
thanks.

    cpan> look CGI::Application
    $ perl Makefile.PL && make && sudo make install

Thanks to the mercifully short list of dependencies, all of which
core with the exception of HTML::Template, that Just Works. Thank
you for that.

And that is why, despite the tone of some of this mail, I don’t
particularly care. It just means CGI::Application has this stupid
quirk of not being installable in a standard way for no apparent
reason – but oh well.

I don’t see it used anywhere except in a non-essential method.
(If it were, that would count as a design problem.)

I have no interest in any of them.
