May be better to say it all?
warning "since ServerRoot is not defined, " . "using apxs-derived PREFIX $base to resolve $file";
I suppose the wording could be reworked.
sure ;)
While you are at it, I'd also add a check that $base exists and it's a directory before you call rel2abs, because it can be a broken value.
I think it's safe to assume if you pass in $base you know what you're doing (especially since nobody appears to be passing in $base :)
yes, but you attempt to do: $base = $self->apxs('PREFIX')
what if it returns a non-existing dir? apxs may be not adjusted to the movement of the files post-install. It doesn't hurt to check.
as for checking the resulting ServerRoot, yeah, I thought about that. I suppose it can't hurt.
And also check that rel2abs gives us a an existing filename
this function is starting to explode a bit...
So what, it's just a function. Why not making it foolproof why we are spending time at it.
and it's an absolute_path.
no sense checking that - rel2abs returns an absolute path by definition.
what if it fails?
or die otherwise.
I don't think we should die here - it's not fatal to the build process if 'perl Makefile.PL' can't resolve testing files.
Hmm, look at your patch, you die if there is no base. I was just following your idea ;)
