Hi All,

So I've been talking to the mod_perl developers about providing installation tools built on top of Module::Build. Specifically, they have a module, ModPerl::MM, that can be used by CPAN modules built on top of mod_perl to build themselves. From what I understand, the whole point of that module is to detect when both mod_perl1 and mod_perl2 are installed, and, when they are, to add "Apache" to the install path before installing mod_perl2-specific modules. The documentation is here:

  http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/ModPerl/MM.html

Anyway, in talking to Stas and Geoff about providing the same functionality for modules that want to use Module::Build, the question came up as to how they should go about it. I think what makes the most sense is for a ModPerl::MB module to subclass Module::Build and override the appropriate method to append "Apache" to the install path when necessary. So the question is, what method and/or property should be overridden?

Thanks,

David
