Bug#517423: dh-make-perl: Should ignore $HOME/.modulebuildrc

 I have a $HOME/.modulebuildrc containing the following, which I find
 useful for directly installing modules in my $HOME:
 
  install install_base=~
 
 When running through dh-make-perl this file needs to be ignored, or else
 bad things happen:
 
  W: libio-async-perl: file-in-unusual-dir root/lib/perl5/IO/Async.pm
 
 I find that the following change fixes it:
 
 --- debian/rules  2009-02-27 16:40:25.0 +
 +++ debian/rules  2009-02-27 16:38:49.0 +

That won't work with short DH7 debian/rules dh-make-perl uses 
nowadays.

I guess putting MODULEBUILDRC=/dev/null in the environment before 
firing dpkg-buildpackage is a better idea (provided that 
dpkg-buildpackage doesn't sanitize the environment).

Bug#517423: dh-make-perl: Should ignore $HOME/.modulebuildrc

Hi,

 I guess putting MODULEBUILDRC=/dev/null in the environment before 
 firing dpkg-buildpackage is a better idea (provided that 
 dpkg-buildpackage doesn't sanitize the environment).

What about patching dh_auto_{configure,build} to export MODULEBUILDRC?
Building Debian packages should not depend on the user's environment
after all.

The quilt makefile snippet handles the situation similar: it passes
--quiltrc /dev/null explicitly whenever quilt is called.

Regards,
Ansgar

Bug#517423: dh-make-perl: Should ignore $HOME/.modulebuildrc

Package: dh-make-perl
Version: 0.47
Severity: normal

useful for directly installing modules in my $HOME:

 install install_base=~

I'm not sure if that's the best/safest plan, but it does at least stop
Module::Build from reading my $HOME/.modulebuildrc during the install
phase. Perhaps there's a better way?
