    • Use valgrind -q in build to reduce verbosity

  • Updated perl-HTTP-SimpleLinkChecker to 1.16 (fix 403 status test - CPAN RT#57584), dropping my patch for that issue, which is no longer needed

  • Updated perl-YAML-Syck to 1.08:

    • POD link to JSON::XS from JSON::Syck

    • Remove included inc/attributes.pm dependency

    • Add homepage, bugtracker, and repository metadata to META.yml

    • Bump perl dependency from 5.00307 to 5.006

  • This build failed for distributions with perl < 5.10.0, like this: 

  • Can't locate object method "again" via package "FindBin" at inc/Module/Install.pm line 233.

  • The again method was added to FindBin in perl 5.9.1 so I'm surprised that this isn't causing more widespread problems for users of Module::Install (the cpantesters results suggest that Module::Install itself passes its test suite on earlier perl versions, which is a bit strange). The following patch worked around the issue: 

  • The FindBin->again method requires perl 5.9.1 onwards
