Config::Any fails tests on install danielmcbrearty 02-24-2007

I went to upgrade one of my boxes today, and had probs with C::A

I sent an email to the module owner (address as in the perldoc) but
got a "550 - the lights are out" reply from cpan.

here's what happened. Looks like one of the test modules has a simple
error, so I force installed - anyone else had problems? or know what
to do when the owner seems to be MIA?

thanks

Daniel

If I was pre-committed to this module, I would persist with it, despite the=

failures. But I'm not...

My advice is to use Config::General instead, or - if you don't want to do=
that -
Config::Simple.

Was that the "rataxis at (@) cpan dot (.)org" address ? I would have
expected that to
be valid. (No guarantees of course.)

You could go to http://search.cpan.org/~rataxis/Config-Any-0.06/ , click on
the 'View/Report Bugs' link and submit a big report. (However, to make the
report you'll need to login with a Bitcard or PAUSE account.)

Alternatively, submit your bug report via email to bug-config-any
at (@) rt dot (.) cpan dot (.) org . (See the "Bugs and Limitations" section
in the module's
docs.)

Version 0.06 was uploaded just yesterday, so it's quite likely the author is
still taking an active interest in it :-)

Cheers,
Rob

That's correct only in those parts of the world where "today" is the 23rd
February :-)

Cheers,

yes, it was his cpan address. I hadn't gotten around to checking when
the update happened, if it is recent, I bet it's a very small error in
the test suite only.

I'll file a bug. Thanks.
