This is a bug report for perl from Michael Cartmell,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.35 running under perl 5.9.5.

I just built 5.9.5 and got one test failure. it was for CPANPLUS.

lib/CPANPLUS/t/20_CPANPLUS-Dist-MM............................Can't open
perl script "/home/michael/perl/bin/cpanp-run-perl"​: No such file or
directory
# Failed test 'Testing module'
# at ../lib/CPANPLUS/t/20_CPANPLUS-Dist-MM.t line 98.
FAILED at test 9

The file cpanp-run-perl isn't present until after the install. Either
the test should use the file located in the source tree or, if that is
not possible, skip the test.

It is a false negative as I get 100% test success after installing perl
5.9.5.

FAILED at test 9

The file cpanp-run-perl isn't present until after the install. Either
the test should use the file located in the source tree or, if that is
not possible, skip the test.

This failure is most likely caused by the fact that CPANPLUS scans your
@​INC and ~/.cpanplus/lib for modules matching the pattern 'CPANPLUS​::Config​::.*',
for additional/personalized configuration and finding the one in your homedir,
which holds incorrect information for this test run.

This is not the safest testing behaviour, so I've modified the test suite to only
look at CPANPLUS​::Config as shipped with CPANPLUS when running the tests, so
that these type of side effects are avoided​:

* address [perl #43629] Perl 5.9.5. cpanp-run-perl not present
  as reported by Michael Cartmell. When running the tests, don't
  scan your include dirs/home dir for other CPANPLUS​::Config​::*
  entries, as they might contain data not correct for this test
  run.

Thanks for reporting,

That would explain it. I had installed 5.9.4 into the same location &
then deleted it before building 5.9.5. I had used CPANPLUS to install
some modules. After moving the .cpanplus and perl installation
directories out of the way the error didn't occur.

My pleasure, I'm looking forward to 5.10, it's got some neat new
features. Thanks for every thing you are doing to make it happen.
