Or replace ExtUtils::Manifest with something that doesn't use the filesystem as its primary API? Or, dirty hacks: my $orig = \&ExtUtils::Manifest::maniskip; local *ExtUtils::Manifest::maniskip = sub { my $stock = $orig->(); return sub { my $what = shift; return 1 if $stock->($what); return 1 if $what =~ m/MYMETA\.yml/; # or whatever ... 0; } }; --Eric -- Consumers want choice, consumers want openness. --Rob Glaser --------------------------------------------------- http://scratchcomputing.com ---------------------------------------------------
