I'm just curious - why won't you use Build.PL?

1. Because MakeMaker is good enough for me.
2. Because MakeMaker is clear enough for me (Build hides too much)
3. Build.PL neither does support what I want
4. Build requires me to use lib/, even if I just have a single .pm
5. I love the mantra
# perl Makefile.PL
# make test
# make install UNINST=1

Just wondering in case it may affect any time I might want to use it.

Use whatever fits your needs best
